A bit of rust

Not much local stone evident in this property overlooking the Bay....where the Geordie boys on the Valhalla are sorting out their trawl in clear water, IOS supply ship, Gry Maritha passes down their starboard side bound for the Scillies....
with the big tides this week and a poor forecast there are plenty of boats crowding the harbour....
which gives the Jacoba a chance to go through her scallop dredges...
laying outside Penzance wet dock, TN Trawler's George Lou N shows off her rust covered hull, when steel meets steel at sea rust follows within minutes so that boats working any kind of heavy gear tend to look uncared for within weeks of a paint-up.
