Tom's Place or yours?
After a hectic meeting schedule, London chef Tom Aikens and crew retired to the Sworfish - unusually when talking fishing, he seems to be stressing how high this one was!
Mackerel and inshore lobster man, Dick Ede also seems to have 'how high' on his mind!
Aboard the Ripple, no sign of John Lambourn and the paint crew!
Plate steel sits on the quay ready to construct a new set of bulwarks and scallop dredge handling system on the Jacoba - will Jacky J be down to lend a hand?

Three more for the scrapyard!
The Daisy begins the long tow as she pulls the Basil away from the quayside.
For her final voyage the WS&S beamer, Daisy Christianne leaves her berth for the Stone Quay to pick up the Basil St Clair. She will then tow the Basil to Hull. The Sarah Cathryn Stevenson left earlier under her own steam for the same destination. All three beamers are bound for the breakers yard in Hull on the East Coast. The Daisy was the largest vessel in Stevenson's fleet. You can see pictures of all three vessels in their heyday here.
shore staff wait aboard the Basil St Clair to pick up the tow rope....
the bow thruster works overtime churning up the harbour waters....
as the bow heads for the quayside.......the towing chains are made ready.
Fishing News photog, Phil Loclkey gets in close to the action aboard PZ1.

Andrew Woods makes some last minute repairs to the keel of his boat...
All hands to, the ring-net aboard the Pride of Cornwall is pulled off to make way for another..
hot work for Tim and the boys in the evening sun!
The Intuition heads for the gaps...
Thursday morning, and the Nova Spero steams past Mousehole Island on her way off for the next tuna adventure. Last trip saw them steam south for two days - that put them in the Bay of Biscay off Spain. Look closely and you'll see hands on deck.... with only one tangon pole lowered some last minute adjustments are being made.
