Three Sisters R
Newbiggin is one of the few fishing villages left on the Northumberland coast where a handful of traditional fishing cobles (pronounced 'kerble'!) are still launched from the beach. Three Sisters R is one of the very last clinker-built wooden boats to be made by the J&J Harrison boatyard at Amble in 1986. She's registered BH86 as a netter, owned by James Dawson. 'Wor Jimmie' was in a bit of bother with the law a couple of years back and was fined for an illegal catch found on another of his boats, the potter Endeavour BK241. Three boxes of lobster were landed but an inspection by the Northumberland Inshore Fishing and Conservation Authority revealed a further three plastic drums covered by damp carpet (commonly known as a 'dodger') filled with undersized, and two berried hen lobsters. That mistake cost Mr.Dawson nearly £3,000 . . . ouch! Taken with Polaroid SX-70 Sonar Autofocus on Polaroid (TIP) B+W film
