Who Pulled the plug out


Who Pulled the plug out

St peters marina on the tyne, sill on the marina is bust.  well overdue for a dredging and a clean out me thinks



    when was this taken ?
    this afternoon
    Hi Mark

    Just as well the weather is cold or it could have kicked up a bit of a stink - still with the rain promised overnight and tomorrow it will soon be full up again  :crazy2:

    Regards

    filled up this afternoon when the tide came in, likely to be empty again in the morning unless they got the hydraulics on the sill fixed
    be a good chance to get castle moil pumped out and floating again
    they're having fun with that one, 50 odd foot of boat full of water, maybe 150 tons dead weight??

    its buried a good 6' in the mud, be interesting to see wether it came back with the tide, the first open seam is less than a foot above the mud, not sure if a foot of water will be enough to break the suction of the mud on the hull
