Harvest Hope  PD 120

With a full load aboard.



    looks very like golden view same builder i would think ally
    Sprats! Can still smell them. Oil was good for boats' timmers! "Pelagic" still much the same..catching power greater than vessel capacity. Can nearly hear the Boddamers..."We'll manage anither lift, boys!"

    Not built by Irvins James as I have been told that the Golden View was the only 40 footer they built.  Some PD men could verify this.
    aye aye brian ul be right just a guess.heard frigate bird was still on go about suffolk somewhere brian
    Think it was Herd & MacKenzie, but from the yard they had in PD, where the "new" market's just been demolished. Used to be the yard of G Forbes, where some of PD's finest & most advanced boats (of their time) were built.
    eg Fruitful Bough PD417, & Star of Bethlehem PD218..For Peter & George Forman.
    Built by Herd & McKenzie in Peterhead in 1954 same year as the Provider ex ( Green Pastures BF 4 )
    She was in Campbeltown as the Tern CN 12

    Was this the Harvest hope that was lost near Campbeltown  in the mid to late 70s
    Trawling with seine-net ropes, and discharging a basket at a time!!
