asperity Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 It's not so bad when we're heading into the weather like that so long as everything is lashed down/stowed away properly (like I say, I slept through 3 hours of that on Thursday afternoon :wink: ). When the weather's on the beam and we roll sleep is a problem. In fact life gets difficult! :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Must have been rough Asp; believe a ship's gone down in it, and HRH Wills, had to fly to the rescue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 I just read that Obs. It was 20 miles off the LLeyn Peninsula in Wales and the report said 50 foot waves cracked it's hull. Tragic and only 2 of the 8 on board were rescued, they have since recovered one body and 5 are still missing. Tragic You be careful out there Asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asperity Posted November 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Sorry Baz, Marine Traffic tends to get behind the times. She left Stornoway on Sunday morning and got alongside at Loch Carnan sunday evening. She is still there waiting for a tide/weather/daylight window to sail back to Immingham. Information from Facebook! :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 It does actually say that the last "known" port was Stornoway but then a little further down it says: Voyage Related Info (Last Received) Draught: 4.5 m Destination: LOCH CARNAN ETA: 2011-11-27 16:30 Info Received: 2011-11-27 06:44 (2d, 2h 2min ago) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So it is correct I guess....just the way I read it was wrong!!
