Up on the slip at Buckie.
Just normal parcel post,but I'll write "this way up" on it...I would think that should do.
did the scalloper fredwood not have twin gardners in at one time?
The Storm Vogel (CK reg i think) had 2 Listers (i think) driving 1 gearbox and prop via link belting
A few (Frenchies were into that too)British boats had twin engines into one box,but very few actually twin screw.Don't know about the Fredwood though.
Interesting piece about the Kenya Jacaranda, originally named the Torbay Lass - Brixham sail fishing trawler. In 1939, the ship was re-registered as the Kenya Jacaranda. At this point two engines were installed with twin propeller shafts.

Thas was the steel boat they got built in Norway was it no Jammy ? I think she was about 55ft. or so,and I think had two 8L3Bs in her,but I thought they were on one shaft...I've been wrong before though(often!)

Did he no have two wooden boats,Brothers and Brothers Too,then went back to Brothers for the steel boat ? Remember passing him off the Broch one time in the early 70s when they had the wooden boat and there was just the one lad on the deck gutting away.They had a puckle of boxes of green on the deck as well.
the Maneprise Pathfinder from SH had twin gardeners built Nobels of the broch.
