Jon! I'm spying on you now, Get orf this thread and get on wiv my Boot,   by the way thanks for sending the info, all sorted now,, I was going to say that Sulisker was something to do with the Scotish Fisheries, but then I saw the Plaque on the bow, so I'll shut up, Actually no I won't because I just looked the Sulisker up and found this, except I've lived in Lowie for the last ten years and not seen any work going on with her,,

 

The Sulisker type were offshore patrol vessels with a displacement of 1,365 tonnes and a maximum speed of 18 knots. They could spend up to 21 days on patrol. The first of the type, FPV Sulisker was launched in 1980, decommissioned late 2006 and is currently undergoing conversion to a luxury yacht in Lowestoft
