Red Duchess

Hi treeve,

Some very good photos of her you are putting up ,hav'nt come across this one yet but the Red Baroness is a regular trader to Lisahally with logs,

Cheers, Fred.

Glad you like them ... she is still berthed at Newlyn this afternoon. Must be something radically wrong on board. Troon vessel TN37 Philomena was also at Newlyn; pictures to go up some time today. Best Wishes, Raymond.

Why do you say "must be something radically wrong"?

Because she was due in Waterford on 1200 the day she was first moored in the Bay, after she was due, and the fact that she was berthed at Newlyn for two days afterwards. Shipping and cargo movement costs and schedules can go way off beam if a ship is not on time, so I suspected either illness or damaged or faulty equipment? It wasn't especially bad weather, after all, the practice gig went out in the bay all afternoon.
