 Perhaps a second discussion is required as to the strength of the sea? Richard Noble (driving) is in front of Barry James, Les Holliday and John Essay. The other boats occupants are unknown, can anybody assist? Image and names courtesy of family of Richard Noble.  Looking at the waves behind, we are unsure as to whether this was before or after, but we have Les Holliday viewing the waves, John Essay is sitting in the boat ‘Cock-A-Leekie’, so called as it was prone to leaking! Richard Noble is seated on the tractor. Image and names courtesy of family of Richard Noble.
Richard Noble is driving the tractor and we have Keith Money and Stephan Tokarski working the boat. Believed to be launching owing to the absence of seagulls, often indicating a successful voyage; unless you know better? Shaun Clarkson has advised us that the boat was built by Billy Clarkson. Peter Appleton tells us: “The boat was named after Melinda Muriel Thomas, who would have been Stephen’s grandmother I think. She married one of my great-uncles, Robert Evans, at Brotton in 1927.” Image and names courtesy of the family of Richard Noble and thanks to Shaun Clarkson and Peter Appleton for the updates.  Together in the boat we have: Richard Noble and Trevor McConnell. Image and names courtesy of family of Richard Noble. |
