Can you give us an enlarged print of this one ? Thanks.

Can do Steven - on its way. I have done my best with it Stewart. You are very welcome to the original (not very good) print, if you want to try yourself.

"The original is a three inch print off a two and a quarter inch neg. I don't have the neg. The print is not very sharp and a bit the worse for wear. This is as good as I can get it."

It's pretty good!

Date is post 62 as "Orcadia" is in picture. I recall some Shetland creel boats working out of Kirkwall in early 60s "Brighter Hope" being one and the Burra boat "Enterprise" LK447 later bought by the Costie boys of Westray K880 being another but I'm not able to positively identify any of these apart from Tommy Harcus's "Lotus" (blue hull)and I think Charlie Kelday's "Ranger" TT73 which is moored inside the "Lotus"
