EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a fishing trawler named Bounteous lies half-submerged on the shores of Newlyn, Cornwall, following a harrowing encounter with the North Atlantic's rough seas on January 17, 1980. The trawler, a stalwart of the local fishing industry, had been battling the elements when a sudden wave struck, causing it to roll and sink. The image captures the moment of rescue as the stricken vessel is being pumped out and pulled upright by a team of brave rescuers. The use of airbags, a relatively new technology at the time, is evident in the photograph as they are being inflated to help stabilize the boat and prevent further damage. The shoreline is dotted with onlookers, including local fishermen and residents, who have come to lend a hand and offer support. The scene is one of industrious determination, as the community rallies together to save the Bounteous from the relentless grasp of the sea. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the risks and challenges faced by those who make their living from the waters, and the resilience and camaraderie that can emerge in the face of adversity. This photograph, taken in the 1980s, offers a glimpse into the past of Newlyn's rich maritime heritage and the vital role that fishing played in the town's economy. It is a testament to the enduring spirit of the community and the importance of solidarity and collaboration in times of need.
