Description:

A visitor to Greenock , although registered in Glasgow. Three years ago , the similar tug \\\'Flying Phantom\\\' went to the seabed near Clydebank after a disaster in December 2007 in thick fog with the loss of three lives... she could well be up for the third anniversary of this terrible accident. She worked on the Clyde between 1986 to 1995 before being moved to the Tyne and now based in Cardiff , Wales.

Nice picture
Is FLYING SPINDRIFT still owned by Svitzer? I see the logo is painted out and she has Felixarc Marine branding.
