Lovely to see this twin-funneled Dutch one again Phil. But if she was preparing to anchor she never made it. This was the day when she just drifted up the Reach seemingly out of control, remember? Seen here too:

I would love to have had a VHF back then to hear what VTS's take on it all was :-)

I do remember it very well John. I think that by the time this photo was taken, she had already been upriver, turned around and gone back down again!

I've no idea either what it was all about, though I have one or two theories.

Cheers
Phil
