WK 176 looks like a real veteran, any idea on the date of the photo or the age of the boat?
Provider WK 84,
owned by Liam Smith & Davie Plowman . This mustve been when she was relatively new in Wick as she has a cod end boom aside the wheelhouse. She later had the rope reels removed & converted to pair trawling , after which she had a major refit in Macduff in whch a 3/4 length shelter deck was fitted.
During her time in Wick/Scrabster she paired with Raymond Ross`s Avalon III WK 343, Alvidra Elaine WK111 & the late Graham(Hartley) Smith`s Bonaventure INS 325.
She was sold around 1996/97 as Liam & Shortie retired
Great photo's and very interesting thread, thanks everyone

The Provider moved to the BF register named Denarius,then moving over to Mallaig renamed Azelia OB 80
Many thanks Peter for the information, thought she must be a little elderly looking at the design although would have put her older than you have. Was she a traditional style that continued into the last century?
