Nathan and fellow Carol H crew look a little sheepish at the result of their faux-pas earlier in the day, a freshly welded new section - moral of the story? - don't drive off with the landing gear still hooked to the pickup truck if you want to avoid cracking the landing pole! - bet Phil wasn't too impressed!
Crabber's yellow wellies pose again.
Multi-puprose Dignity from St Ives has put in an appearance
3 & 4 inch planks are ripped from the lower hull....
and leave behind a sea of nails....
bet they don't make them like this anymore....
a day' s work sees most of the starboard side stripped.....
under the appropriate plea over the garage of WS & S.....
all that remains of the oak planks - firewood!
"Scattered blues"
"Atlantic Edges"
"Offcuts"
Looks like a jolly night starting at the Mission 
The Jacoba now has new bulwarks in place both sides.
Saturday saw thousands of visitors hit Newquay Harbour for their annual fish festival...Seafood Cornwall were a popular stand....
as was their rolling programme of live cookery demonstrations...
a few local merchants were able to show off locally caught fish....
while outside, master traditional lobster pot maker Dick Ede from Newlyn, held a captive audience....with willow branches freshly picked from the side of the A39 earlier that day!
one couple were particularly impressed as they realized Dick was doing this for the love of it - they noted he could have been at sea for the three days of the festival earning some money with the pots!
in what could only be described as 'light airs', the annual Matthews Cup took place in the Bay....
with boats jockeying for position before he start....
and making a run for the line with spinnakers set.....
as the Scilly helicopter came in and circled for a better view....
time to check the watch against the start signals.....
as all shapes and sizes milled.....
and all ages....
seems like chaos!
In a scene reminiscent of JMW Turner's "Fighting Temeraire", the Elizabeth Anne Webster is towed by the Chickadee and the harbour punt round to the slip for breaking. She was the port's first beamer, skippered for most of her career by three well known Newlyn men, firstly by David Hooper followed by Dell Puckey and Michael Corin.
she's towed passed the newest wooden beamer, the Marie Claire up on the slip......
a tricky moment as the Chickadee takes her past the end of the Old Quay....
at this time, first time visitor from Bideford, Our Olivia Belle makes her way quietly to the market to land....
hard to know how many times the Chickadee has manouvered the EAW into a berth, this time its the last and final berth.....
even Lifeboat coxwain, Neil Brockman has been drafted in to help!......
as ever, Mav and Clive bring things into perspective as the ominous arm of the crawler make a grab for the hull.....
and the tow is let go......
back at the fish market, the Bideford boat, in her somewhat striking livery has begun to land.....
as the boys on the Defiant get down to some serious mending after pulling the net on to the quay by the iceworks.
Scratch me back....
check out the shore ropes....
and off we go!
Robbie's submission for the Turner Prize?
