Other information

The G&E is Lowestofts longest serving fishing vessel, She has been fishing from Lowestoft for 46 years and has been in my family for 41 years. She has been a long-liner for most of that time, but due to quotas in the last few years she has spent a few months in the summer time drift netting for Dover Soles.

The G&E is a fine built wooden vessel and an excellent sea boat. She has been maintained to the highest standards and should have many more years of fishing in her....God willing.
