A sorry site as the Roseland sinks

Lying against the quay just as the tide starts to make, the Roseland is watched over by shore staff from Stevenson's who will have the task of pumping out and refloating her later to day...
they will have to wait until the tide is falling this afternoon before they can begin pumping and attempt to find the cause of the leak....
the Rosleand was converted to gill netting in the ealry 90s but has not been active fishing since the 1970s when she was side trawling......
passing lifeboat from Ilfracombe heads out of the gaps now the weather has fined away for her trip round the corner and up the channel to her home base.....

with bad weather continuing from last Thursday there were only a handful of fish lots on the market this morning - biggest was 3 tons of high quality pollack from the CarolH that had sailed on Monday and shot off the Lizard - the fish made good prices averaging around £4+ a kilo - here Edwin, from Ocean Fish, reports back to base on a small shot of sprats taken by their boat, the Resolute ,overnight.
