Pop down and see us in Action Stations at HM Dockyard Portsmouth for big static displays and at 3PM pyrotechnic displays on the water.

Sat was great, but Sun the weather kept numbers down. In a bright spot two Eboats (or were they Sboats?) From the Suraface Warship guys joined in the mayhem of our WW2 convoy action.
Here are a few photos I took on Flicker

Some brilliant images there Z750  :-))

Couldn't quite understand what if anything happened to the K185 model [some excellent life-like shots of her] ......... Derek

I always seem to miss her when its her turn for a run of depth charges. Next show I will have to concentrate on her( yellow funnel as I think of her) and try to get a gòod boom close up

I think this is her on the left just as the charge went off. Pity she was not center frame and zoomed in as that would have been awsome

Here she is laying a smoke screen so the merchants can run away.
