David Boyd is a man on a mission.
A successful businessman, he hopes to return Portavogie to the 鈥榞ood old days鈥� of the 鈥�70s and 鈥�80s white fish boom, by developing new markets for the large coldwater prawn or 鈥榣angoustine鈥�, a high-value luxury food.
The fishing industry in Portavogie has been on its knees, but any student of history will tell you that you鈥檒l not keep an Ulster-Scot down for long. David is buying new boats and trying to encourage youngsters to stay in the area and join the fishing fleet.
Portavogie needs a saviour, and through a heady mixture of faith, political upheaval and determination it may just have found one鈥�
