More about this scene
Fishing was a rough and dangerous way to earn a living. The North Sea tides could prove fatal for small craft, and more than once the Cromer lifeboat was forced out into bad weather to rescue whelkers. These men are suitably dressed for foul conditions in their thigh-length sea boots and thick fishermen's ganseys.
