    Aye he was telling me he will have it back up soon but he was gettin pestered with porn pop ups & decided to take it down. A really excellent site, especially some of the pics of old Norrie with the 1st Boy Andrew & the old cine film of the Danish seiner.

    When it comes back on Im sure Peter will let us ken

    Thats not Donalds site. The Ships Nostalgia site has always been up and running.

    The site that was and still is down is "wkboats.co.uk"

    I'd love to see it up and running again.
    Im looking for pics / info of the "Royal Burgh". Any help?

    No luck on Trawler photos, Trawler Pictures or Ships Nostalgia sites.

    From a modelling point of view this is about as good a pic as I have
    http://www.trawlerphotos.co.uk/galle...php?photo=5631
    She was WK561 when built then sold to Macduff renamed Deveronside as in the pic She then came to Lybster as WK176 for Donald Calder Last heard of in Ullapool reg
    Hope this helps
    She had a backward rake to her mizzen mast
    All the best

    ps I didnt leave Ship Nostalgia ..I was booted off by the site owner as I was not able to provide copyright proof for pictures my late uncle had taken in the 1940s..and I wasnt going to tell lies about them

    Excellent info Peter!
    I didnt realise she was in WK reg twice. Now theres a choice- what to build.....

    Thanks for the info/photo. Theres a link to the wifes family in some way. I now need to dig a wee bit deeper to find out. Classic Alexanders lines on her. Nice.
