brand spanking new mizzen...


a sea of masts and rigging looking out Through the Gaps...


looking good on the slipway...


the tall ship Irene berthed on the Stone quay...


a family of scallopers...


ishore trawler power...


classy wooden deck of a visiting yacht...


the grim reaper's distant Celtic cousin...


the big one is well ahead this year...


power to the orange team...


classic 104 years old Swedish working boat,  Deodar after sailing down from Milford Haven...


her English counterpart the even older,  Irene...


heading fir the fish market, the mackerel boys return...
