"Speedwell" ex Lossie fishing boat on end of Warehouse pier, operated by Bill Banks to Flotta before John Cook bought her and fitted her with tanks for taking Diesel to Flotta. "Hamnavoe" operated by Stromness Nav School on North side with a Halmatic fibreglass creel boat fitting out for Colin Marwick alongside.

Speedwell was already fitted with tanks when J Cook bought her, she carried 14 thousand 4 hundred gallons in the hold tanks and a 6 hundred gall tank on the stern, which john got rid of, Just got some photos o her on the slip in Scalloway, she's looking exeptional for her age, 64ish.
