    The late Davie Milne had her in Arbroath in the 60s before he got the Marigold.

    Very unusual stern.  Anybody throw any light on it?

    Bryan, is that the same Milne that had the grocer's at the "fit o the toon"?

    A true cruiser stern Will,says to me that she was built in Peterhead,Forbes maybe,but could be wrong there.The Ocean Queen in Rothesay was the same style and she was a PD build of the late 30s.
