    did she go down on a poor night or what ;D :woodenspoon:
    i canna remember if france or irish build ,she had boudwin engine for a start very noisy couldnt sleep much for noise of it ,she had a stem on her size of thick tree
    as 1 member said in the cabin was aft 4 bunks but you had to climb in to them head fist ,like torpedo tubes you came out feet first like a coffin with no bottom.very strange ill look out a pic of that some time
    im nae shure if it was a poor nite ill enquire ,i was up doing my mates ticket at the time .
    french built at  les stables i think in 1975 . Sister ship /boat was the patrica campbell  which worked rockall an I.O.M . It was lost on a poor night in the winter time it had changed back over to the seine net .No lives lost everyone picked in the liferafts .It had a baudouin french engine to start with the it was re-engined with cummins engines.
