The date is a guess. Is this the Hebe which belonged to David Chalmers. She was broken up at the side of the west pier. Can anyone name the woman, or any of the chickens ?

I dont think this is the HEBE she was lying at the west pier and was complete with masts and bowsprit in 1948 Douglas Cooper tried to parachute off the bowsprit when he was living in W.P.DREVERS flat above the shop.

This hulk was broken up at near the Station pier. You can see the bighouse in Papay in the background at the ships stern. I dont know the chickens but it looks like a young Annie of FAESTOUN feeding them- picture of the early thirties ? E.S.
