new to this forum so thought i'd better say hi.

worked on boats for a few years when i left school and worked mainly the clyde but done a few tours of the west coast and pittenweem. left it all behind for a shore job but will never ever forget my time aboard the boats. seen things that i would never have seen otherwise. also met loads of cracking folk on my travels.

my two good friends still have small prawn trawlers and i help out in my spare time in the summer, which is just an excuse to get ou on their boats to feather for mackerel lol.

thanks for listening to a landlubber

Welcome aboard mate
Same boat (not literally) as me then, gave it all up for a lay in mornings, the dry and warmth, home at reasonable hours and not rolling around hanging on for grim death all day
I'd go back to it tomorrow, so you aren't alone plenty of landlubbers on here!!!
Cheers Daz

if your an exfisherman shadrapper you will wonder what the hell has happened in the years since  you left
then you will realise its just progressive madness that is part of the industry it comes from above
