Boston Lincoln pics reqd
« on: July 20, 2010, 07:52:07 pm »


A friend has asked me if I can find him pictures of the Boston Lincoln.   This is  (was?)  a fisheries collection vessel, which he fancies scratch building.

The little history that I have dug out is that she was in the Falklands in 1973 for a short time and also grounded once on Scarf Rock at Holborn head and was towed off by lifeboat and taken to Scrabster Harbour.  Amazing thing the Internet.  ;) ,  But no pictures can I find.   :((

Hope you can help with this one

Ken

Thats 8 photos of her in Grimsby. She was built as a fresh fish trawler ( fish kept in ice and not frozen ) but was lengthened and converted into a whole fish freezer trawler

Thank you Keith. Just the information we need. I had a browse around and will inform my friend of these details.

I don't think I shall attempt such a build myself, but it's what he wanted.

Thank you again

Ken
