This is a picture story about another all consuming 'passion' that materialised late in life. (c2005 - 2010)
She was an ORKNEY 440 fishing boat which I bought brand new and trailed hither and thither for around 5 years. Most of the time we kept her at Northney Marina on Hayling Island.
We named her 'Kellar' after our favourite Black Labrador.
I don't remember actually catching a fish!
