This photograph taken at Longhope Regatta around 1965-67 I would guess.
Some time back there was on this site speaking about the the "Hazel" at some time owned by a Dunnet man and later by Sammy Doull. The Hazel" is in this photo wae the bigish wheelhouse (Black and White). Sammy died in 1969 so must have been prior to then. Would the boat inside the "Hazel" be the "Luster" owned by Jimmy and Robbie Johnston.
