Busy Sunday in Newlyn.
Basking in the sunshine, hardly 14 days before Xmas...
and unusually for this time of year, a Belgian beam trawler O33 Marbi...
has been fishing SW of Newlyn...
her starboard side beam is suspended high above the deck...
while some of the crew set about repairing the fishing line...
she is registered in Oostende...
some of the netters are already back in port for the last time this year...
as topsides of the new crabber slowly takes shape...
as does the sardine boat Pelagic Marksman, it won't be long before she is filling the refrigerated FalFish trailer with fish.
