Dirty Buggane Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 We must have the only ship that I have heard of, to rough to sail to rough to stay in harbour. What was all the money wasted on the breakwater extension for. To house gas tanks that are no longer used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asitis Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 It seems an expense to sail the vessel for the last hours around in the sea off Wales. I don't intend any sarcasm because I don't know enough about these things, but seems strange we have bought a vessel which can't stay in the harbour in extreme weather. The Ben never had to do this as far as I am aware. Just seems to be an unnecessary way of eating into the bottom line if these type of storms become more frequent. !

It will once the extension to the KE VIII pier is complete though I believe. Begs the question why that wasn't done before she arrived, that's one for DOI. Incidentally, numerous other ferries were off their berths last night in Belfast and Dublin so not just us. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amadeus Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Anyone know a good roofer who can do metalwork? Kind of serious about this, as it’s hard to find any contractors for this type of work or it would have been done already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand it, it's generally safer for large vessels to be anchored out at sea during severe storms than be in port - nothing to crash into. Or it's at least safer to stay out than it is to try and land. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hardly suprising you can't find anyone here to do it, as no one in their right mind would chose metal as a roof covering nowadays. Can't you just tile it, or use some other common roofing materials? 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't seem to bother them with anything else that's gone on the prom. Does it need to match the cracked asphalt, rusted railings or weed verge? 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
