She broke loose on 26.12.1998 at around 10pm and headed down river hitting AMEC, Howden and then the Northumbrian Water before she hit the Ocean Berth and stayed put. The foy's took the pilot John Marshall over to the Hillsider and he climbed up that gangway to get on board. She was towed back to Hebburn late pm on 27.12.98. This is her at the Ocean Berth 27.12.98.

You can see the large I beam sticking out on the Port side aft this is the beam that did all the damage to the Northumbrian Water on its meander down the river, it did very little damage to itself. Micky
