Pictures as promised

Some pictures taken of whats left of the Azalea as well as the scalloper the Rebecca McLean about to be destroyed due to the decomissioning scheme.  I'm pretty much disgusted with the fact that this actually went ahead... Read my rant for my thoughts....


Whats left of the Azalea after being destoyed in the decomissioning scheme.



Another couple of pictures of whats left of the Azalea



 The Rebecca McLean.  There is not a thing wrong with this hull, no damage what-so-ever! A few hundred thousand hours of craftmanship about to be destroyed forever because of beuocracy (As far as I can see!)



More hull pictures.


The wheelhouse and shelterdeck awaiting cutting up....


The Rebecca McLean about to be torn to bits as per the rules of the decomissioning scheme.


More scrap from the Azalea.

The Lady! on the first half decent day this year.




Pictures taken over the last week of the destruction of the Rebecca McLean a Scalloper being decomissioned in the latest round of the Goverment schemes.  Rant to follow!
