Hi Netleyned,

There are some great period photos in Edgar J March's books on the subjects of Sailing Trawlers and inshore work boats of the UK.

They are all out of print but do occasionally come up on e-bay or amazon.

Failing that try the local library.

Hi Greggy
Thankyou for the info
Will have to take a look at our library here in GY
I was in Anstruther Fisheries Museum in the summer
but no flash photography to protect the exhibits
and Reaper their sailing fifie was away on a trip
so I was out of luck
yours aye
Ned
