Sad sight of Radiant Way - KY151 on her way up the Tyne to C&J Marine Services Ltd at Howdon on Tyne to be demolished under the Fleet Resilience Grant Scheme. Photographed as she made a stop at North Shields, 18th October 2010.
Looks a completely different boat to the one that was only in North Shields back in January 2010.

"Fleet Resilience Grant Scheme"??..obviously a name made up by some faceless,overpaid,underworked,gold plated pensioned bureaucratic ars*hole for what the rest of us would call needless pure wanton destruction...a feckin' scandal and a national disgrace,nothing less.

In consultation with industry stakeholders and the Scottish Fisheries Council, Ministers have decided to introduce a publicly-funded fleet resilience grant scheme to dispose of donor vessels made dormant through licence parking.
The scheme is intended to help vessel owners to pay for the disposal or on-going maintenance of the donor vessel if they do not have the financial means to pay for both this and licence parking arrangements. Owners of licence parking donor vessels, or those who will go forward with licence parking subject to the award of a grant, can make a competitive bid of up to 100% of the hull and machinery insurance value capped at £250,000 by 6 September 2010.
A key feature of this scheme is the opportunity for participants to secure a new licence in the future. 'Parking entitlement' owners may, from 1 April 2016, apply to Scottish Ministers for new licences which match the kW and GT capacity associated with the surrendered licence. Where an application for a new licence is successful then a payment equal to the amount of the fleet resilience grant received plus compound interest, applied on a daily basis from the date of the initial grant payment at a rate of Bank of England base + 3%, must be made before the new licence is issued. Scottish Ministers cannot, however, guarantee that an application will be successful.
The Scottish Government's aim is to ensure our fishing fleet is resilient and can navigate through these challenging times. It has accepted the industry's view that licence parking, together with the linked fleet resilience grant scheme now proposed, will give the Scottish fleet a vital opportunity to restructure, potentially temporarily, in order to stay viable whilst we seek to restore fish stocks. The two key merits of these arrangements are that they are optional and reversible.
The Fleet Resilience Grant is co-funded by the European Fisheries Fund (EFF).

More like a true reflection on the real state the industry is in.Some men are taking the option of taking the pittance offered afore the bastards in Brussels have us all the same way without paying a fekn penny for it.
Aye Steve,that quote is another of the "never use ten words when two hundred will do"!!...if there was ever a Pulitzer prize for writing (and talking!) shi*e I reckon half the numpties in government would be short listed
