    FR.274 Duthies  Skippered by Louis Duthie  Fraserburugh next to the Duthies is the Forethought BF.264? Skippered by Wullie Nicol, Gardenstown and next to the Forethought is the Boyne Vale BF.266. Skippered by Jacob Smith Portsoy, Astern of the Duthies is the ex Whitehills seiner Emblem which at this time was owned by a Fraserburgh Skipper Alistair cant remember his surname but was better known as big al and I think inside of the Emblem could be the Peterhead 40 footer Summer Rose ??. If it is the Summer Rose she was owned and Skippered by John Buchan Peterhead.
    Photo could be the mid to late 60s.
    The MTB in the foreground was bought was bought by Alan Clegg who was an instructor at the Moray Outward Bound school. He was converting her to take passengers. He moved away, boat and all, before the work was completed.
    good photo ally i think it is a postcard if i remember,summer rose,emblem,duthies,forethought,and the boynevale

    Does the Forethought have a TT registration on the picture? Or is it FR with some of the paint missing?
    alastair buchan had the emblem FR.72,he later had the blossom,and then built the avocet i think?
