The Isabella Fortuna, restored 19^th century fishing fifie belonging to The Wick Society, is to feature again in the Scottish Traditional Boat Festival at Portsoy from 7 - 9 July 2006.

The vessel, with its volunteer crew, will once again represent Wick and will demonstrate the Wick Society's continuing work in preserving all that is best of Wick's fishing heritage.

When in Portsoy the crew will display representative images from The Johnston Collection. They will tell the story of the extensive restoration project that the members undertook, over a number years, to bring the Isabella Fortuna to her present condition.
