    Confide.
    this was in portavogie i think ...............not 100% sure... O0
    Too wee for the Frigate... Wheelhoose wrong too...
    It was the BF Confide and it was sold to peterhead in the mid eighties . I think the man's name who bought her was  james strachan i think he used  have the boddam yawl the trust and worked the gill nets out of boddam  and then bought another small light blue painted boat for the gill nets and then went to buy the confide .I remember him working the gill nets with the confide out of john scott's pier in peterhead .You can see by the photo she is rigged out for gill nets as well as the trawl  .
