Pioneer at anchor

Waiting for the dock gate to close at Penzance.......
first of the crew arrive aboard the MBLA's Happy Return looking forward to their trip 'round the corner' to St Ives......
another ex-lugger, the beautifully restored Pioneer lays at anchor off the back of the quay at Newlyn......
work begins on the final stages of scrapping the Roseland.......
and the Geordie boys are back in town having completed their refit of the new Valhalla at Mevagissey......
a relatively still night in the harbour......
in the best of traditions, the weekend wedding of Hannah Pascoe (Huers) and the Wiffer (Sea Jay) is celebrated with the family punts decorated with bunting......
caught at twilight, the Twilight III on the slip.
