Tour Scotland video shot this morning of the Reaper Herring Drifter leaving Anstruther, East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. A rainy morning in Anstruther, the wonderful East Neuk fishing village in the Kingdom of Fife, just 9 miles South of St Andrews, where I was raised in Scotland. The boat was going to St Monans this morning, just a few miles from Anstruther, on board was the Sea Queen for this year for the village of St Monans.
