Taking it easy after the biggest World Championships ever last weekend on the Scillies, steady as she goes, always a tricky moment lowering the oars on a gig...... on the hard for more scrubbing, Harvey's remaining crabber is beginning to look spruce again..... with the wind in the East the Ripple is kept off the quayside..... a couple of long-expired pots complete with a scrap of French nylon trawl attached..... the market's grading machine makes short work of lemon soles...... a few early season bass have put in an appearance, a welcome boost to earnings for those on the punts who are prepared to put in the long hours needed to chase these wily fish down..... shimmering scales on the Sea Spray's pollack show off the top quality of line caught fish.... boxes of Dorys, just some of the giant Dutchman's fish from the Dora et Labora...... the trend of investing in new boats shows no sign of dropping off, two examples of the latest additions to the fleet of punts..... another Dutch presence, this time in the shape of a concrete-hulled barge style yacht.... the Gary M passes the back of the Old Quay and heads for a berth alongside the net loft at high water....... inspired, no doubt, by the cartoon characters in Asterix the Gaul and built for comfort and a place to escape it seems..... the owner obvioulsy like to keep things tidy including the mooring rope ends...... another new boat, the Lady Jacqueline, with a 100hp Mercury pushing her along the Runnelstone Reef and all those bass are only minutes away...... the 'Reds' team have their work cut out by the looks of the damage to their trawl this morning..... as the water warms in the harbour it provides ideal growing conditions for the algae between the pontoons...... heading in through the gaps and out of conditions that have most of the local fleet in and tied up, a visting yacht with just her fores'l up...... the Catharina is just one of four visiting Brixham beamers using the port to land their trips...... registerd in Dublin, the delivery crew of Meg of Muglins are still attached to their safety harnesses..... crabbers and scallopers, two shellfish boats land at the market berth....... watching over the welfare of the harbour, the ever-present Mission flies its flag and tells us the wind is nor'easterly.
Taking it easy after the biggest World Championships ever last weekend on the Scillies, steady as she goes, always a tricky moment lowering the oars on a gig......
on the hard for more scrubbing, Harvey's remaining crabber is beginning to look spruce again.....
with the wind in the East the Ripple is kept off the quayside.....
a couple of long-expired pots complete with a scrap of French nylon trawl attached.....
the market's grading machine makes short work of lemon soles......
a few early season bass have put in an appearance, a welcome boost to earnings for those on the punts who are prepared to put in the long hours needed to chase these wily fish down.....
shimmering scales on the Sea Spray's pollack show off the top quality of line caught fish....
boxes of Dorys, just some of the giant Dutchman's fish from the Dora et Labora......
the trend of investing in new boats shows no sign of dropping off, two examples of the latest additions to the fleet of punts.....
another Dutch presence, this time in the shape of a concrete-hulled barge style yacht....
the Gary M passes the back of the Old Quay and heads for a berth alongside the net loft at high water.......
inspired, no doubt, by the cartoon characters in Asterix the Gaul and built for comfort and a place to escape it seems.....
the owner obvioulsy like to keep things tidy including the mooring rope ends......
another new boat, the Lady Jacqueline, with a 100hp Mercury pushing her along the Runnelstone Reef and all those bass are only minutes away......
the 'Reds' team have their work cut out by the looks of the damage to their trawl this morning.....
as the water warms in the harbour it provides ideal growing conditions for the algae between the pontoons......
heading in through the gaps and out of conditions that have most of the local fleet in and tied up, a visting yacht with just her fores'l up......
the Catharina is just one of four visiting Brixham beamers using the port to land their trips......
registerd in Dublin, the delivery crew of Meg of Muglins are still attached to their safety harnesses.....
crabbers and scallopers, two shellfish boats land at the market berth.......
watching over the welfare of the harbour, the ever-present Mission flies its flag and tells us the wind is nor'easterly.
