I thought that too.
She is 42 years old so you would have thought she was on borrowed time

She has been Detained at Sunderland since she returned from Cape Verde and was inspected on the 5th August.
Usual problems, Certification, Fire Safty, Life Saving Appliances, Communications etc..
Could be her trip to the Tyne is to make her fit for a one way trip to the scrapyard.

I was having the same thoughts myself in regards to her age, my Son in Laws vessel doing the same sort of role is being scrapped at 20years old and some of her equipment is going to a Museum apparently!

DEEPSEA WORKER alongside at A&P's Bede Quay 09/05/2022. Could not see any name on her.
Almost impossible to get a decent view of her.
