Forty days and forty nights, surely not

Seems the heavy showers forecast are likely to be worse than expected......
back from Penzance Dock, Britannia IV in through the gaps.....
a truck load of frames to make up, more than a day's work for one of the crabbers......
a study of curves from the masterful hand of Girvan boat builder Alexander Noble, the line of the planks in the hull matches that of the bow wave......
as she traverses the liquid gold found in Newlyn harbour......
two of the Cornish Sardine boats wait for the evening call......
TN Trawlers, Philomena, uses a springer to pull the bow away from her ice works berth
she might only be 20 odd feet in length but she dwarfs the fuel tanker on the quay, the Lyonnesse with her cargo of insulated tubs.
