The boatbuilding industry has always had its ups and downs, reflecting the changing fortunes of the fishing industry. This work offers an account of the Campbeltown Shipyard, that diversified its boatbuilding activities in order to survive but competition from foreign yards moved into a new dimension from the mid-nineties onwards.

PETER DRUMMOND has had a lifelong interest in the fishing industry. With regular co-author Sam Henderson he has previously written The Purse Seiners; Fishing Boats of Campbeltown Shipyard; Built by Nobles of Girvan and Sputniks & Spinningdales. He has contributed to books by James A Pottinger and Mike Smylie, and is author of a database giving brief histories of all fishing vessels over 12m long built for Scottish fishing fleet since 1967. He lives in Ayrshire.
