BK29 Sovereign is an old motor fishing vessel from 1936 which would have been drift or ring netting to catch fish. Sovereign was built by Nobles of Fraserburgh and spent her early years based at Newhaven near Edinburgh before service with the Royal Navy during the war. After the war she was based at Seahouses and North Shields until retirement in 2009 when she was the oldest fishing vessel over 10 metres. https://www.nationalhistoricships.org.uk/register/164/sovereign https://web.archive.org/web/20210605144430/https://www.nationalhistoricships.org.uk/register/164/sovereign
