    seems to me that she's fast running out of hope
    looks like an ex Admiralty MFV ... 45ft class

    Can mind Ronnie with that one when we first came to Oban late 60s,Jim,I'm sure he was clamming with her then.Don't think she was an MFV Jay,I've a funny feeling she was a Scalloway build,maybe just after the war.
    New member here - sailed on this boat in the early 60s out of Scalloway, long lining. Skipper was Jim Fullerton. Anyone know where she is now?
