Bon Ami at Plymouth

aye,aye, still looking grand, was a Lossie boat this one INS 69 at least she is getting a coat of paint

Jim.

Aye Highlander example of Bck built boats ,mind you there was 3 shipbuilders to choose from , now there is only 1 .
Heard a story that a skipper recently approached the yard to built him a wooden boat ,Management told him to go to Watties "Mcduff".
They also apparently don,t like fishing boats up on the slip "as they are too smelly".
Aye changed days lol

If it wasn,t for the repair work and maintenance of the Lifeboats the 1 would be none .

She was never a Lossie boat, she was built for Dodie Jack of hopeman.

Aye you are right enough OAK LEAF Dodie just died a few months ago. Jim you were asking if that was the Lossie Sunbeam in the Celerity photo i would say it was that was the first boat i went to the sea in 1961 originally named the Fionaghal INS 67 (John Wood and others) Jackie Wood and Joe Croan.

Is that no the stern of the Sunbeam LK209, ex FR 487.
