She was sandblasted and left unfinished.Dock was taken over for development (luxury units) and she became an embarrassment.Moved every time there was a protest until finally left for India.
I am a shiplover and I don't think she harmed anyone. Regards, Ian Baker.

As for the Cotswold Prince, she borke down on the way to India and spent nearly 3 months I belive in Albany while they sourced parts, which ended up coming from a derelict trawler there, which was be prepared for a dive wreck. She did make it to India and she is no more. I agree with you, I saw her sitting there at south arm and unless you knew what it was you would have just assumed it was a ship at anchor.
