Nathan and Quentin put their point across to the visiting group......
while the Polarfrost Seafoods' driver from Grimsby eats his chips before heading off up the A30...........
and the scalloper, Jacoba hangs his 17 dredges a side out to dry.

IoS - Pretty in Pink!
Twinkle arrives to put his trip ashore, Sunday afternoon..
while the spiders from Tom on the Huers get sorted....
....and brother Dennis heads back to tier in his punt.Down on the pontoons, 'Grimmy' Mike, in yellow wellies tells another 'yellow welly' (as fishermen affectionately refer to yachtsman in general) how the world should be!
This used to be a slip down to the beach in Newlyn, could you find it today?
10 out of 10 and kudos to the Isles of Scilly Steamship Company bringing some real pzazz to their overstay car park in Wherry Town!

Summer's back!
The Anneliese in silhouette heads for the gaps...
...with a man on the bow ready with the shore rope.
Roger sits and contemplates life as a trawlerman faced with a bit o' mending on the footrope it seems.

A master at work....
Crabber Cresca gets a tow back in tier from the Trewidden with harbourmaster Andrew Munson at the helm....
single handed it seems....job done, Andrew and Royden head back up the harbour.
On the new quay, brand new pots wait to join the fleet
thumbs up from the Viddy....as the Aphros from Great Yarmouth makes her way in.With the new art gallery developments perhaps someone can explain this monolith the Wherry Town car park by Penzance Promenade - is it art or a concrete fitment left over from the sewage treatment development?
