Restored Faroese Fishing smack Johanna originally built in south of England early last Century. I think she is operated by a Trust or Charity Co-operative and is chartered out by groups with a small crew of experienced seamen.

Your quite right Willie, she sits just below my house here in the harbour at Vagur in the south island in Faroe.

Joe, so good tae hear from you on this site,and as was said in that famous poem written by the then master o the St Ola about a rescue carried oot by the lifeboat. The line that sticks in me mind went 'Remember aye remember that yae are men o Brims'
