You should pop across to Terneuzen, it's hard to avoid her there!

Some people have to work not having time for swanning off on cruises or to the Continent

Recently lengthened from 82 metres to 119 metres. Significant restructuring after 45 years in service as a coaster and dredger.

Certainly gets about, often seen discharging at the Sand Wharf at Ijmuiden opposite the Cruise Liner Terminal where Cruising Passenger transfer to Amsterdam, I am surprised she is that old, smart looking vessel in my view, certainly a bit different to TCC N01 :)

Profile of her alongside at Wimbourne
She was waiting for the WILSON THAMES to sail before she moved over to Battleship
Normally in for three or four hours she was in 3 days for this visit
At least the crew were on the right side to go into town
