Formerly TERN, she was designed by William Storba and built by Gibsons of Fleetwood as a long keeled gaff cutter of carvel construction, copper fastened and close-ribbed in the Morecambe Bay style.

She was registered at Preston as PN64 on 29th June 1894. In 1907 she was owned by Henry Milling of St Anne's. She was registered at Fleetwood as FD182 on 4th May 1913. Registered Liverpool LL25 on 22nd February 1916, she was fishing during the First World War. Registered Runcorn RN37 21st June 1923. As Jean More, she served as a fire-fighting float in Liverpool during the Second World War. She was later found abandoned back at Fleetwood, lying in the mud, washed by the tide. Mike Griffiths made her seaworthy, towed her to Fiddlers Ferry and restored her to his usual standard and renamed her - after his father.
