St Ives pilchard driver. Last sailing pilchard driver fishing from Newlyn

The Agnes, a St Ives pilchard driver regd SS464, purported to be the last of its type to work under sail, is seen from the starboard and windward side, sailing into Newlyn harbour on smooth water. Four crew members amidships indicate the length of the Agnes - ca. 40ft. A few other, larger, motorised fishing boats form the backdrop.
