Three more Stevenson fishing vessels at Newlyn which are not doing a lot of fishing anymore. Excellent b.1931 by Forbes of Sandhaven is one of the oldest vessels in the UK fleet and still in good order. Anthony Stevenson b.1945 is young by comparison and one of the last sidewinders. William Stevens

Two more for disposal? ABS has been partiallly stripped, her winch removed, and is being worked on. Jacqueline with her nameplate removed and her registration painted out does not look likely to fish either. She is one of the very last traditional sidewinders afloat and it will be sad to see them

Awaiting disposal the "Webster" has been partially stripped and is expected to be broken up shortly. Built in 1946 with a timber hull and formerly Agnes Allen in Brixham she has served 40 years at Newlyn but is no longer viable.

Probably next to go from Newlyn. She has not fished for a considerable time and is not likely to be repaired and refitted. Chasa

Not much further to go as at 4/7/07

Watercolour of Elizabeth Caroline PZ293 by Colin M Baxter, Hampshire martine artist, painted some years ago in Newlyn. Something to remember when she "retires" shortly.

Converted beam trawler Ocean Danger, Panama, at Grimsby 14/2/07. Probably built during the sixties in Holland and now apparently a diving support vessel.

On 6th July 2005 nearest the quay, the beamer ABS PZ 203 built in 1960 on a Sputnik hull at Montrose and converted to beamtrawling during the late 1980's/1990's. Still operated by Stevensons of Newlyn. Alongside her is Jacqueline PZ 192 one of Stevensons remaining wooden hull sidewinders.

The record breaking Joy of Ladram alongside at Plymouth on 30th December 2006. The port record holder! Built for Bernie Johnson at Portsmouth in 1987 as Cromer P225, and later operated by Colne from Lowestoft as St Lucia.

Two more of Seafield Emiel's beamers alongside at Brixham for the break, the Lady T Emiel BM2000 and Angel Emiel BM28. On the outside NSA Trawler's Three Sons BM169 formerly Marilyn Jane.

Almost all of Brixham's beamer fleet in port ready for the end of the holiday and hopeful easing of the SW weather!

Seafield Emiel's Sasha coming alongside the ice quay at Brixham on 2nd January 2007. Formerly Goldcrest BCK40. Ready for a trip as the weather eases.
