Too much haste!
Belfast motor yacht, Dream On leaves the pontoons.............and heads off towards the Mount.Looks good and true now, but a few hours ago..........
.....despite being three years old the Jacoba's scallop beam came up in two halves, a clean fracture around the entire beam that looked as if it had been cut!Resurgan's hull job is nearly complete.
Visitor from Brixham, the beamer, Three Sons.

Another bent beamer derrick

The prettiest punt in the port - varnish still looks good!
Chloe T, look closely and you'll see the bend in the derrick.
A loory load of scrap and more to come from the Bryan D.
Sunday landing means the fish goes by lorry up the quay.
Terry busy with his torch...
and not so busy at croust - check out the junk food on the stool, obviously shopping for snack food these days with the better-half away over in Canada - won't be long before he joins her - at least then he'll be back in with the sandwiches!
An over exuberant Terry the torch forces some swift action from Clive on fire watch!
Sparks are still flying down the engine room!
A daily reminder in front of the office window as the next W S boat is scrapped.
Last cut before the galley top comes off.
Away she goes!

Another first

Definitely high water on a big spring - even the quay rings are lifted!
These three haven't moved much of late.
A first, two for the price of one! The St George and the James R H Stevenson are fill the dry dock in Penzance.
Meanwhile another WS boat, the Resurgan is up on the slip.
The wheelhouse is now all but gone on the Bryan D, the funnel graces the deck.
Possibly another first, Newlyn Co-op to proudly sports their new corporate livery.
Badcock's gallery now playing host to Sir Peter Blake RA and Gavin Turk

Turned out nice this evening!

The funnel of the Bryan D provides an odd silhouette.
Biggest - smallest: the punt PZ527 Bass Boy steams up the harbour with the evening's handline caught mackerel on board; in the background, the port's largest beamer the Daisy Christianne has just arrived.
Refrigeration specialists Kingfisher wait on the end of the quay alongside the Daisy.W Stevenson boxes piled on the quay ready to go back aboard the James RH

Welsh refrigerated transport takes five with a daily paper in the cab.Over in Penzance, the Scillonian eases her way past the end of the quay after her trip back from Scilly.
