Our boat Dolly P, is named after Dolly Pentreath 1692-1777, the last fluent native speaker of the Cornish Language.
Our skipper Mike Laity is directly descended from Dolly Pentreath and Mike’s own daughter is also named Dolly Pentreath.
“We always go mackerel fishing when we visit St Ives and if possible, always choose the Dolly Pentreath. Caught loads as usual, it was great fun.”
