don t think this is the beryl, both beryls bf411 were built with square sterns at macduff
there was a beryl built with a cruiser stern she is called the andrias now but she was built mcduff or banff 
thats the loch bervie bf411,the cruiser sterned beryl was bf440,built banff 1967 for whitehills
Cheers Billy have changed the name
I Might be wrong but i think she sank full of sprats as LITTLE FLOWER CY REGISTERED 
I launched the Loch Bervie probably about 45 years ago. I think I was 4! I can still remember it yet. It was built in Fraserburgh. It belonged to my dad James Watt.
Sold to the late James Macleod, and renamed Little Flower. There are things you never forget !! ... Saw her leaving Macduff one night very heavy in the water. One of the locals, also watching her, told me he was taking his new "house" back to the Hebrides!! She was load up with cement blocks etc.
Eleanor's dad was one of the top fishermen on the Clash grounds. Sadly he died a very young man during the building of his new boat Crystal Sea, at Macduff.

abody wis stunned fin they heard aboot yir dad I wis a young loon fin i watched the LOCH BERVIE being launched fae the winda o George Walkers sail loft where i wis an apprentice sailmaker She wis yalla painted fin she sank full ti the hawsholes wi sprats ... I think somewhere aboot the Faskadale Bouy sooth o Mallaig Im sure the skipper or one of owners .. who later owned the present PROWESS was tragicly killed in a car crash on the island of BARRA .
Thanks for your comments guys, appreciated. Eleanor.
