During sandeel fishing in southern North Sea in early summer 2001 "Rainbow" got into fire and sank afterwards. By floating crane the vessel was refloated, but it was later scrapped. Note how the sea have cooled the shellplating and remained the painting. Above waterline there was no coolin

In summer 1984 Esbjerg had still wooden vessels to see..this is a trawler built 1959..lengthened at some time. On the dirty freeboard the waterline is still visible from last arrival loaded with sandeel.. This vessel was among many others broken up in 1993.
