    quick turn around steve . a few hours later she was heading back out
    Hi Terry

    I think she just offloaded the empty reel at the OTP and then went into the Wear - she was there this morning but I see from AIS that she is heading for Aberdeen and is just off Whitburn. Not sure what she is doing, facing West and travelling at 3.9 knots?

    Regards

    Steve E.
    could be pirates steve you need more than 4 kts steaming past that part of the coast
    Aye Terry, she's up to 9.3 knots and is off Blyth now - she must have outrun the Pirates  O0

    Regards

    Steve E.
