Friends of the Primrose Work to Save Destin Seiner
Destin volunteers led by Capt. Jewel Melvin form the Friends of the Primrose to restore the oldest commercial fishing boat in town. A May 5 fish fry at the Community Center backs their effort to raise funds and preserve the Primrose's storied 1925- era history from its landbound future.
