The small Harbour Tug/Plough Tug seen here operating in the Port of Tyne, North East England on 31st May 2011. Photographed from Western Quay, North Shields.

She is acting as support to the Trailing Suction Dredger CRESTWAY which is currently dredging the Tyne and is now carrying out Survey Operations.

Hi Billy

She and Lynceus have been surveying up and down the Lower Harbour, Fishquay and Western Quay all morning. Checking to make sure the dredger and dragger has cleaned everything up. Lots and lots of chains, warps and nets dragged up from that area, must have slipped off boats by mistake

Regards

Or why aye am sure they did more liked dumped there by the F**kas that were paid to remove them but decided to let the tide do the job for them you know who you are.

I know these vessels were doing a job steve but am sure as damnit it certainly wasnt doing any surveying at that point this morn well not at that speed anyway hehehe

Another Dredger coming in on Friday Billy - MARICAVOR - Pontoon with a digger bucket operating from it. So something else for you to avoid.

Good to see you've got nets on your drum

Regards
