Looks like the CLEVELAND COUNTY has been sold, listed on the port movements as sailing for an unknown port in Antigua,estimated for 1200 tomorrow 05.06.23. I noticed yesterday the funnel marking has changed,no sign of new name or port of registry.

I can't recall having read of shipbreaking in the Caribbean Islands, no doubt more will appear in due course. She's still a young 50 years old :)

Exactly NE, I am sure the old TCC would have squeezed a few more years out of her yet, bearing in mind No64 this vessel has not been a “Cost Effective” proposition :) although thinking about where she is possibly going she may have a second career yet either still working or Blue Label “Used but Serviceable” spares source.

Adjusting the Impeller Wear Ring in the Dredge Pump(s) was an interesting task, do the modern Dredgers still have two Masters?

I wonder if they'll be getting a replacement for her or just chartering in another dredger?
