    ONE OF BURDIES BOATS MUST HAVE BEEN BEST IN BUCKIE FOR FORTY YEARS
    Is she a Herd and Mackenzie? Looks like a boat I knew, the Castle Vale, anyone know her?

    Cheers

    Opportune became Saffron INS95 and finished her days in Portavogie.
    Castle Vale N12 was built by Herdies 1955 as the Havilah. Ended her days as WA23 in 1980.
