Christina II laying at Charlestown Harbour Fife. Picture taken 27 December 2008, Hull still in good nick, has 6 cylinder Perkins in her.
Used to lie on the slip at South Queensferry was painted green then.
According to Graham on the other site she was built as the White Heather BK-159 for Burnmouth,later LH-35,BK-84,then Silver Crest BK-84,and finally Christina 2 in Port Seton.Had a 66 Kelvin in her then,but whether she was built with that I don't know.Bonny wee skiff in her day,sad to see her in that state.
still had the 66 kelvin in her before she stopped fishing,converted to electric start much easier than the old hand one.used to have the old coal stove as well when i used to go out in her in the eighties
Her last registration was LH256 - Eyemouth built boat (1950s).
