'Boy's Own' was built for Robert Rutter of Seahouses in 1933. It was then taken over by his brother Henry, but upon the death of Robert, the boat was passed to his three sons; Raymond, John and Robert. It was used by them for fishing until 1984, when it was given to ISCA.

Length - 32 ft 6 in
Width - 7 ft 7 in
Depth - 2 ft 9 in



    she was hire out  to amble  fishermen
    I'm fairly sure she was in the Exeter maritime museum 14-15 years ago until it closed down
    That's right she was in a museum down south, I'm sure they had the sails for her.
