Many years ago we bought a Baltic trader in Assens. It also had a two cylinder B&W Aplpha engine together with a variable pitch propellor, meaning the propellor always turned in the same direction in forward or reverse. The two cylinder engine Puckata - Puckata sound was wonderful and so relaxing to listen to. Marvelous simple machinery with little to go wrong.

As a kid I used to go out on a coupla Fishing boats.(crabbers) One 65ft with Wichmann 2 pot 2 str. one an 8LW Gardner. from Grimsby (3 lads.) she did 11 knots. The Dane was a 70 ft beautiful Pitch Pine with Oak stringers and Ribs. Herring boat. Seasonal every yr., did around 7 or 8 knots. But Startup. You'd almost come on them. 3 second smoke rings for a couple minutes. slowly winding herself up. Gardner different. But smooth as. Once she cranked up from zero. dropping the decompressors in. We used to hand crank the Wichman on half turn of crank above the floor boards 2 men and a kid. On Compression stroke.3 persons. One rope and 3 knots where to hold it so no knuckle barking if you pulled back and met the winch. Beautiful old boats and GREAT seaboats too. On a bad North Sea 3 day Winter blow. I'd rather be on one of those than any Modern vessels, I ended up with a little 30ft Norwegian fishing boat myself after Army. With a single pot Hundestadt Hot pot donk. 30 yrs when I bought her. 45 when I passed her on. Same donk still chuffing away happily. I recaulked her below waterline about 8 or 9 times in those waters. Splined above water and epoxy to seal when she rolling They take in water by end of summer when timbers dry out above water when rolling. Pre spline. When seams would dry and putty drop out loosening the cotton. Great memory's. I learn't Cotton and Caulking on Middleton Beach when the local smaller fishing boats would be rollered up out of water each spring. Got quite good at it too. Cotton. Putty and Linseed. the heat up the TAR in drums and brush that on. We kids used to Chew the Tar chips when they oldies chipped it down to melt. It has a distinctive taste all of it's own. I can still taste it in my memory. Jesus. I was 12/14 then. 83 now. GREAT Memories. You young fella's don't know what you all missed.
