YAN (Yet Another Newby)

[Jim Porter]

Hello everyone. Just registered with this forum and saying hello. My main interest is in fishing vessels, especially the old steamers that sailed from Fleetwood. I have sailed for Elders and Blue Star in the past but it's been many years since I have stood a watch.
