History
AMELIA ROSE is a Fifie, a fishing vessel of wooden carvel construction, built by McDuff of Fraserburgh in 1932.
Amelia Rose worked as a fishing vessel all her life, orignally as a lugger. She had a large engine and wheelhouse installed at some point from when she worked as a trawler on the east coast of Scotland until the late 1990s, after which she was laid up, half submerged, until she was purchased in 2001. From then on she has been lovingly restored, funded entirely by the owners. She still has all original frames and half of her original planks and stem. Everything else on the vessel has been replaced, so she is approximately between 30-40% original.
