Pittenweem harbour 1973
Now l think this one came to fife for st.monans owners from moray firth, then later ian jones took her, she lay at anstruthers west pier for a good while, dont know what happened to her then ??
the net on the pier looks like its rigged with thon big blue plastic balls wi, holes drilled in them,this was before hoppers ,boats used bobbins at the trawl,the blue balls weren,t a great success.
good pic of bygone times.
i think the PALM was involved in some kind of mayday,in a gale in the north sea, a coaster went to tow them in but struck her and knocked the stern mast doon,

im sure robert purvis took her when she first arrived,that looks like robert in the wheelhouse,possibly young kevin on deck there.getting a sail.
then ian jones took her and im sure her name was changed to PALMYRA then..
