"ROBIN Hood's Bay in the good old days, no sea walls and rubbish about" – these were the memories of one reader who saw the picture of a family in a fishing coble in Looking Back.
The photo, published in our Friday 9 October edition, shows the boat, registered WY9, off the coast of 'Bay in the early 1930s.
Mr JM Wedgwood of Huntingdon, Near York, thinks the photo shows fisherman Oliver Storm and says the boat's name is probably Peace.
"I cannot identify the two lads at the bow but they seem very familiar, the shorter one could be my brother," he added.
