Think the boat's the Mount's Bay nautical equivalent of an Optare bus. Glad you've mentioned ferries, as there would surely have been a bit of too-ing and fro-ing between Mousehole, Newlyn and Penzance. All horribly weather dependent though.

The St Michael Returns After Refit
An oversized amphibious vehicle made for an unusual sight on Cornwall’s roads recently as it made the 22-mile journey on a specialist lorry from Falmouth to Marazion after undergoing a major refit in the Cornish port. ((Continues)).

Division at every point on which our gaze falls, and meanwhile, in Penwith:

"It's fair to say I'm not a popular person in Mousehole, although I am a popular person in Newlyn, which is great."
