That is a brilliant photo never to be seen again
Great old photo boats landing at the market are the Craig INS 85 skipper Willie Ralph standing forrat and the
Britannia INS 68 skipper Jim Stewart at the winch The photo would have been taken mid to late 1950s as the Britannia was not built untill 1952 and was painted grey for a few years

Cyril,
Great aul photo right enough, looking a bittie tight do you think its a Friday, the way the other boats are lying. Are you sure the Brittania was grey in colour I always thought she was white.
