She's on her way. Watched her leave Southampton, now down by Bramble Bank, according to Ais under her own steam and heading for Falmouth.
Or even the Hoegh Osaka!

I did see a photo of her leaving with a tug attached to the bow, but perhaps that was just for manoeuvring in the docks.
She was still slightly on the piss though, which is surprising.

I wonder what repairs they can do in Falmouth they can't do in Southampton???
It's probably more storage costs than labour capability ..

You (well... I) have this mental picture of Falmouth as some pretty, west country, fishing village... and then you find out that they have "3 large graving docks and extensive alongside deepwater berthing providing capacity for vessels up to 100,000 tonnes." You learn something new every day...
Better there than Germany....

They have excellent facilities in Falmouth for ship repairs, I thought the same as you before first visiting but its different to what you expect, nice place to visit though.

Amazing facilities, (with growth planned)...Pendennis employ loads of local and non domestic tradespeople; its really good for the town.
