Penlee lifeboat rescues boat from slip.

The slip cradle stuck when the flat-bottomed workboat Terramare was being let down the slip. Penlee lifeboat and the Newlyn harbour tugboat Danmark were called in to help pull the Terramare down the slipway - all ended well.

Newlyn's fishing community thrives on these who make a living going out Through the Gaps. The fishermen of Newlyn land the finest handline, trawl, net and pot caught fish and shellfish daily so that Michelin starred Cornish chefs like Nathan Outlaw can source #MSCCertified #Hake, #Sardine. Digital fishing images are available from stock or on commission. Come and enjoy the fantastic light to draw or paint in the footsteps of the Newlyn School.
