Would that be the Corrigal owned boat "Catreono" extreme left of this photo? If so there is a photo of her on this site already.
The Corigalls had left Hoy before my minding.
"Catreona" was built in Stromness I think by J MacKay who may have been married to a sister of Jimmy, Tommy, and Alfie.
I can remember the "Catreona" and the "Iris" both calling to gether in Longhope on there way to Skye, newly built, mayby around 1967??.
