Stonehaven Seafront Metal Sculptures

The metal sculptures don't just show some stunning boats (and a plane). Take your time and look closer to see, that the vehicles are maneuvered by creatures of the sea, not by humans. Especially bizarre: the crab vessel where crabs are rowing the boat and keeping humans in the cages that are normally used to catch crabs.

For quite some time it was a mystery who created the sculptures. In May 2019, it was revealed that Jim Malcolm was behind it. He worked much of his adult life at sea, before latterly becoming a welder.

Lovely metal sculptures line the sea front here - ships of those working or lost at sea, a plane & a lighthouse

A line of small detailed sculptures along the sea front. Mostly boats, but a plane and a lighthouse too.
