More information:

This was taken around 1987 when these Grimsby trawlers and the trawling industry came to a virtual end. They are lined up prior to selling to the offshore gas industry and some went to Africa. They have the generic name of 'cat boats' because they are such as the ROSS TIGER. THE ROSS LEOPARD ROSS GENET etc.
