    Great photo the only boats I know is the ringers the Aliped viii BA155 and the Seafarer
    the pair of ringers lying outside look like the Integrity & Avail .
    I think Tarry was the last Clyde boats to go to Whitby around 1962-63
    i notice on the ALIPED her wheelhouse looks very similar to the miller,s style alongside her,,
    mebey a bit of industrial espionage goin on there,,,(copying)?????
    I think the black hulled,  Aberdeen registered boat on the outside was the Whitby based Lead Us (Raymond Storr). KY201 was Provider.
    did the provider become the paragon later on ? ???
    She was Lead Us 2 really as he sold the first Lead Us WY.36, to Sam Chapman in Gy, next to LeadUs 2 is the Wakeful KY.261, Georgie Storr and next to him is the Ocean Venture, KY.209, Jack Hebden.
    There is a sprinkling of the older Whitby boats ahead of em, the Galillee, Venus, Prosperity.
    Lovely days!!!
    Yes, it would be Lead Us 2, the original was more the traditional ringnet design
    George, I think it's Avail BA97 outside Integrity.. Seem to remember them being together at one time, after ma faither bocht Tudor Rose...
