Vaughan Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 One of those tugs looks like an ex Navy LCVP, if I am correct. I guess that would be a very useful workboat on the rivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LizG Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Wondered whether this news item relates to Vagabond or the remains of Vagabond moving on? https://www.edp24.co.uk/motoring/planned-closure-of-haven-bridge-march-30-1-6576519 Under the current restrictions it might not even happen now? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
