What about the old shipyards in the toon.
I dont know much about them, but someone one here must recall them.
As far as i have been told & saw pictures of there was one area at the paddling pool, now the Sea Cadet shed as there is a slipway directly in front of it, there was another where thge Job Centreplus building is & of course the latter at the Trebch point i can definetly remebr that one, it was always good to see the new boats coming out from there.
Sadly all gone now with the decline of the fishing industry , something seems to tell me that the last boat to be built at the shipyard is actually the McMonagles fish & chip restaraunt that is situated in Clydebank, anybody confirm this?
This is one of the many fine boats delivered in only 9 months in 1990 from the yard based, since its launch in Peterhead, many of Peterheads fleet came from here & all the buyers obviously came here for a reason, every one of them said they were & still are quality boats. Sadly a lot of them have beem decommisioned now but there is always the history & memories.
