Great Britain The Sulisker Leith-Fisheries protection vessel-May-2013

[Scattergun]

Ah that's ok. I already knew the state she was in. It's just generally sad to see her being left to rot. When we heard the news she was being converted it was kinda mixed emotion but my dad ultimately felt that was better than the scrapper. I'm sure he'll have plenty of shots of her fae her working life. I'll see if I can get hold of a few

To be honest I was very surprised to ever see her on here. Small world eh?

I'll deffo see what I can dig up Wevs. Eye patches and all.

Any pics I do have are at my old mans place but I do have this, although it refers to Suliskers sister - Vigilant.

The ships prefix - FPV - stands for Fishery Protection Vessel while DAFS stands for Department of Agriculture and Fisheries for Scotland.

Lol sometimes it works mostly it doesan't, tried that one at port london authority to see other two ships that are on here, it didn't wash got past one as he was busy weighing a lorry and didn't see us lol, the other fella further on would not let us near them health and safety, but good news they are trying to get ships moved so will keep an eye on them, I think they ww2 ships but not sure. On the other side of the harbour it would be easier to get to them, didn't fancy getting arrested my mate wanted to run for the open gate I had to restrain her lol and shes older than me. There is alot of empty factories/places to see but security and very high spikey fencing is not be messed with.
