    Does anyone have any history they can add to this boat. John Young Hopeman owned this boat and my father John Clach McLennan skippered it for a while. Any other information would be helpful.

    Cheers lads! It would be  good to hear from anyone with any fishing stories of the vessel or to hear from anyone who knew the crew.
