Gry sea trials



Battery Rocks swimmers forced to do their thing inside the safer confines of the harbour when the weather prevents them from their normal route......
sometimes she does, sometimes she doesn't, the bow thruster on the Gry finally does what it should and pushes the bow away from the dockside.....
making her way out of the wet dock having just completed a refit in the dry dock.....
the Gry Maritha helmed from the port side wing of the bridge..... passes the Scillonian III busy taking on goods for this year's penultimate Saturday Island run......
waiting for Harvey's lorry to arrive, the Emma Louise is all set to land her crab.....
a question of function over form for this workhorse vessel......
the working deck of the Forth Sentinel from Briggs Marine......
sports a decidedly blunt bow, ideal for pushing......
on the long-term visitor Tranquility, it's time to run off the combination bridles down the quay......
and re-splice the ends.......
landing in progress aboard the Emma......
up by the Fishermen's Arms a dedicated bunch of volunteers begins the annual task that is.....
erecting Newlyn's now very well known Harbour Christmas Lights......
the Crystal Sea is about to finish landing to a wagon from Ocean Fish......
as skipper David swings the last of the boxes towards the waiting transport.....
Harvey's crab wagon passes by bound for the storage tanks......
a hand aboard the Carol H gets in more practice for the Indian rope trick.....
while Nova Spero skipper Shaun Edwards demonstrates the correct way to push boxes on the quay.....
and can't resist showing off a two-handed spin move to the three-striper.
