FISHERMEN are rallying round the families of the lost Tarbert men whose boat sank in Loch Fyne – as a public campaign to bring the boys home raised almost £90,000, writes Colin Campbell.
Three days after the 40-foot Tarbert fishing boat Nancy Glen sank just off her home port in the sea loch, the Clyde Fishermen’s Trust set up a fundraising campaign to raise the vessel from the depths.
The boat hit trouble on the early evening of January 18 and, despite the efforts of many different crews who came to her aid, the boat was lost.
