Quiet this Xmas so I thought I'd post my sightings today here at Ocean terminal Edinburgh
About 2 hrs before you posted I was on the other side of the Forth at Aberdour looking across to Leith!
Great pictures of Apache II!!
I was on the team that delivered the donor vessel from the yard in Spain then converted her into the pipelayer back in 2009-2010 out in Finland. Last week I was talking with another ex-Technip colleague and we were wondering if she's still mothballed in Leith. Bit sad to see but there's no work for her -for a long time now. Last I heard she was to be scrapped.
I was offshore with Acergy / SS7 for 4 years on the Osprey (scrapped now). I never saw the Rocky 1 up close -just in the field. I'm surrised she's still going, I thought there were allot of maintenence issues on the dive system a few years back.
Good pics, bring back memories. I took one that day from Aberlour but towards the bridges, the tug and oil tanker I saw aren't visible much.
