    Irvin model. This Resplendent, for Forman family, replaced a previous one which sank after a fire in the North Sea. This one was 77ft, I think. Bonny lines. Became Odysseus , then Solitaire.
    Big "Iceland" basket in the lifeboat aft. Used at great-lines for getting rid of ice during landing, hoisting boards on deck for scrubbing, but mainly for discharging the shelved and bulked fish aboard. I'd say there's a good fry in that one!!
    I can see the "liver jars" forrit. Crew's perk. Smelly things... jars, not the cash!
