    i take it she still be crabbing through the season then Daz or is he planning to trawl through the summer ?
    I think he's planning to be able to do either as and when. Split winches are set up under the A frame and angled to go straight aft onto the hanging blocks, thus no deck rollers. Cutting a shooting door in as per Trevose. The tank will be smaller because of the extra weight, but I think it will be suck it and see !!!

    Cheers, quite a bit of work going on again then. See the wheelhouse door has been moved to make room for the drum.
    Is she having a small winch too for the cod-end ? I'm assuming there won't be enough space to flip it on the net drum ?
    Not much that can be done for much extra power though apart from a nozzle maybe.
    Not sure, scotch pole mid ships and swing it in through the gap in the rail possibly. Yep stuck with the Gardner for now, doubt he'll bother with a nozzle
