Black is gold as Newlyn's port records tumbles three times!
Black turns to gold for the big beamer firm Stevensons as three boats take it in turns to topple the port record in a week - after the previous record held by another of their boats, the Aaltje Adriante or AA as she is known had survived for nearly twenty years.......
on the first market for the new year it was the turn of the Twilight III to trash the current £50,000 port record on Tuesday at £51,500.........
the following day, skipper Don Liddicoat on the Filadelfia filled his boots with black gold for £52,000 and, for a few days only, basked in the glory of being top dog, that was until Friday's auction.........
when the market floor was awash with liquid gold from the boxes of the Cornishman and her landing which saw the record fall for a third time in the week with a grossing of £52,800!
