Fisheries minister Jonathon Shaw visits Newlyn - on the quiet

Taking ice, the George Johannes makes an early start....
plenty of cuttles on the market this morning, a bit like fisheries minister Jonathon Shaw, nobody knew they were coming....
crew Jo Crow heads off to the market fridge with a weekend landing from young Roger Nowell's Imogen....
over in the Mission, the disgruntled owner of these yellow wellies bemoans the fact that an opportunity to have a dialogue with Jonathon Shaw has been missed, "why weren't we told?" quoth he.....
berthed at the end of the new quay obviously the boys on the St Piran were in the know as their skipper enjoyed a breakfast with the ministerial entourage..
in the next berth, some serious gear repairs are the order of the day aboard the St George.....
with Perry supervising the fitting of a new set of wheels on the beam under the watchful eye of skipper Billy Worth.....
fresh off the slip and afloat on the end pontoon berth, the Cathryn comes under careful scrutiny from skipper Edwin and a few concerned onlookers.....
she has been replaced by the IOS St Mary's Severn Class Whiteheads.
