Tresco needs sand.

Two for the price of one in the Star Inn.......
on Saturday, another twin rigger from Concarneau, La Servane joined the Bara an Aod sheltering from the weather.....
the fine lines of master sign-writer Squirrel......
enhance the new cat from Cheetah Marine.......
maybe a fan of Take That too?........
wire warp wrapped and ready to go........
how many men does it take to light a lobster, Newlyn Harbour lights volunteers make the best of a break in the weather......
four net drums and twin rig detail from the Servane......
while her harbour gen set in the bow keeps the fishroom cooling working.......
making her way out on exercise......
and making light of the big ground sea running.....
Harbour Lighters heading back for a well earned break.......
in Penzance wet dock, plenty of ropes ashore to keep the Scillonian III safely in her berth.....
almost all the boats are now in the winter storage area......
looks like they're having to import sand over on Tresco in Scilly - the weather must have taken away some of the beaches.

Je reconnais la Servane.
Merci pour le lien.
Très intéressant ce site.
De belles photos d'une région inconnue pour moi.
Très bonne journée.

Laurance I love your images of the signwriters, I used to do sign writing in my spare time, none of this plastic lettering.
OH! will we ever see your name on the board outside the Starr Inn on your birthday. :o)
