Jems

"We twa hae run aboot the braes and pu'd the gowans fine"

These are a few pictures of my very good  and lifelong friend Jimmy Linton.

Jems was born in Earlsferry. Jems discovered he "had it all" and was smart enough 

Never to Leave

Jems' 24 foot Trident "The Rum Rig" on a broad reach.

"A wet sheet and a flowing sea,

A wind that follows fast

And fills the white and rustling sail

And bends the gallant mast."

"Ferry" tales can come true-------
