Thanks to Dan Taylor for this fantastic photo. It was taken by Seonag Murray {Seonag Pholaidh] of the Borve fishing boat Victory. Those in charge of the Shipping Federation in London thought this boat was similar to the one Lord Nelson had with the amount of fishing discharges issued. The crew: Daniel Taylor in the stern, Stroke Oars, Murachadh Iain Staggair and Pete Saunders behind them in the bow is Alig Bellag and Alig [Chontair] Nicolson
