The Ross Revenge - aka Radio Caroline

[Mike_Martin]

I did a search but couldn't see this mentioned any where but there is a petition in need of signature as it has been decided that it would be a fantastic idea to save the Ross Revenge from obscurity in Tilbury by mooring her in the Thames at Gravesend. The plan includes allowing public access to this fine piece of maritime and radio broadcasting heritage.

If any of you agree that this would be a good idea please feel free to sign the on-line petition here: http://www.change.org/petitions/radio-caroline

As we all know the ship spent quite a bit of time in Queenborough and up at Rochester !

And what, pray, has that got to do with anything ?

Glad to see somebody else has got the thing on their doorstep ?

It's quite funny, I haven't been around these Forums for a few years now but I've come back and I feel quite at home. Some things don't change.

The Ross Revenge

It was said during fishing it shadowed the russian navy and had several navel people on board with electronic surveillance equipment.There was rumors that part of the aft of the ship has been welded up with some of the obsolete gear left.
