Agnes - Classic yacht leaves the harbour

Back from another marathon tuna trip, the Ben Loyal waits in a landing berth at the market.....
back to the paint job now the rain has stopped......
the Agnes, a classic wooden boat, she's a Scillonian Pilot Cutter built in 2002 by Luke Powell of Working Sail, one of a limited number of exceptionally fine recreations of boats from the past......
well, she used to be Highlander of St Ives, the original Cornish Sardine boat, now back in Newlyn again under the ownership of Jeremy Hosking.......
relief lifeboat Ruth Snell has just arrived to cover for the Ivan Ellen which will be away for some months....
there's whole lot of caulking work being done on the Anthony.......
not only is the helmsman female, looks like she's still at primary school, good to see the young ones being given some responsibility from an early age.......
more relief for the IRB........
wishful thinking or is it a special offer this week at the green garage?
