    The dark hulled wee boat in the centre looks like the Gannet OB 31 that Gavin Maxwell was shark fishing with,and inside her is probably the ex HDML "Sea Leapord" that he got in April 1946 and was full of dry rot by 1948 and lying in Troon condemned(according to his book "Harpoon at a Venture")so hopefully that dates the pic...and a cracking good one it is too.
    anyone got a pic o the golden stand
    Ta Ronnie,your assumptions coulld well be right. I am afraid modern tech cant turn the pic round to see if ther is any info for us.
