No probs John but a big thanks must go to Mac Rill for finding them and to my mothers cousin for allowing me to post them

willie take it they went back to the sceine net when the herring season was over,or did they follow the herring round the coast..........
I think the Seine was a short term thing between herring seasons ,James , they used to follow the herring , in fact I never knew the boat went to the seine until I saw these pictures and Baden (Baggywrinkle) told me as he was a crewman aboard her
cheers for that willie ..excellent set of photos......

Another very good shot of Abbie Saugh and his crew hauling the nets. Notice the "rail roller" in place, the "scuddin' pole" midway on the side deck and the corks are "forrit," so they're "haulin' a good shot." Abbie haulin' without his "souwaster" on, the others have hooded "oilies."
