A brighter morning but still pretty fresh out to sea

Unable to keep a safe berth in Penzance, the Scillonian III makes her way back to Penzance after spending all night anchored up in Gwavas Lake (the area of Mount's Bay off Newlyn).......
with the fleet blown in there was a wide range of very fresh fish on the market this morning.....
good to see white coats being worn by some of the buyers on the market #professional........
hopefully, the mobile, wirelessly connected scales will be working soon.......
magnificent megs from the William.......
moorish line caught mackerel........
and pristine plaice from the St Georges.......
time to take bait for the crabber.......
an Olympic legacy, looks like Rowse's team GB .........

new gear ready for a first dip in preparation for the Emma's first trip........
not long to the best Fish Festival in the West......
after taking bait and despite the gales forecast, Capn'n Nudd takes the Intuition off to sea.......
these parked cars all received a good soaking when the road was closed last night.......
as Penzance Promenade will testify - plenty of free fertiliser for those gardeners able to get down with a bag or tow!
