Donald MacLean of Scarinish (Dòmhnall Òg) was born in 1859. He sailed all over the world, first in sailing vessels and later in steamships. For some time he skippered the gabbert ‘Primrose’ for MacQuarrie the shopkeeper.

In 1886 Donald married Catherine MacFadyen of Kirkapol and the couple had six sons and four daughters. After acquiring the schooner ‘Mary Stewart’ in 1908, he and his sons worked the vessel until the late 1930s.

Not the man to retire, Donald made use of the Mary Stewart’s jolly-boat to fish for lobsters. He worked productively until his death at the age of eighty-six in 1945, shortly after which a cheque arrived from Billingsgate Fish Market in London for winkles he had shipped off a few days earlier.
