    This is ST-761, a US Army tug built in northern Alabama at Decatur in 1943. Sold to France Fenwick in 1950 as RYHOPE, she was sold again in 1970 to a Yugoslavian company as KASTOR. Scrapped 1986 at Split.

    It's amazing what can be found out ^^ If I remember correctly, the foundations for cranes and other yard equipment is still visible at the rivers edge there. Could well be from the same yard. Bill Quay hides some interesting secrets - some very dark ones too. I think I know where I'll be heading soon!

    Edit; It is indeed this yard I was describing. Once the weather clears I'll grab some pics and explore the area..

    Easy to take this image for granted. But it would appear to have been taken from a boat, is in focus with a good acceptable depth of focus. Great shot. I was born in a house up the bank (not the one in the picture) and used to play around here. Fishing and hunting for crab bate. Those were the days.

    When looking at these photographs it reminds me of the huge 3D map you have of the river within The Discovery Museum in Newcastle.
