Title: Towing in real life

Just a couple of pictures of the Sandettie Light Float behind my vessel on its way to Swansea for electrical fit out after dry docking.

Hiya Andy, I saw what I thought at the time was the Mair in Milford Docks the other day, I see from these pics that it was you, come to pick up the light vessel which has just come out of dry dock. I was unable to pay a visit at the time, and you were gone by the following day. You were in Milford a couple of years ago, I was working in the museum on the dock at the time, I went down to the Mair a couple of times but there was no one on board, I think you may have been in there avoiding a bit of rough weather we had at the time. I do'nt know if you visit the docks much but I will keep an eye out for you as I am down that way most days.

Keith.

OK
We get down there now and again, no plans at the moment, but a lot of our life is without plans, hope to see you next time
Andy

Nice pics Andy, there was a fair sea running on Thursday when I ran the Hurricane H to Swansea. THV Patricia was making heavy weather of it astern of us - she seems to roll a fair bit.
