This was taken late 20s-early 30s possiably a North Boat. Do you recognise any of the crew? Or what ship this is.The man bottom left is my late Father-in-law Jimmy Troup, the man next to him may be Jock Knight? I don't know any one else.

The man next to Jimmy Troup is not Jock Knight. I'm his third daughter and was never aware of him working on the north boats. In the late 20's early 30's he would have been deep sea working for the Union Castle line, after that he was with Bremner & Co. working on the "Orcadia" and "Hoy Head".
