Ajax arrives back in Newlyn with top quality hake on board.

Matt Price, Tom Hicks, Ed Jones and Treeve Perry atop the shelterdeck on Ajax AH32 enter Through the Gaps in Newlyn on Saturday morning.

Having just steamed for nearly 15 hours from away west of the Scillies, the boys aboard the Ajax will be glad to hit terra-firma, and the warm hospitable ambiance of the Star Inn under the auspices of mein hostess Debbie.

However, before the boys get to run ashore there's a tier of nets to be taken off and the boat cleaned down - enjoy the slideshow of pics as skipper Alan and the boys toil away under a drizzly old morning in Newlyn to get the boat ready for the next trip. Their second trip of 120 boxes of hake will go on the auction floor for Monday morning's market.
