Primrose MFV built in Isle of Man 1967

[alandav123]

Hi all, just wondering if anyone knew anything about this boat?
It was one of 6 that operated in the IOM from 1967 onwards. At some point 4 were broken up and two kept on, Primrose is one of the two remaining.

She is 32ft by about 8 or 10ft, not measured her yet.

Any info, pics would be very welcome indeed.
Regards Alan

is that her original name? primrose has always been a popular name for fishing boats there have been masses of them and there till are quite a few fishing

is there any numbers carved in the deckbeams? midships forwards, might narrow it down a bit
