Ice Maiden 1

[Tynesider]

I have not been upriver but understand the Ice Maiden 1 has been moved again !(any pictures)

With all our local contacts and spies does anyone know when we are going to see the last of her? as they seem in no hurry to scrap her, heaven help us if she ever breaks loose as she is built like a brick SH-----!

The last time I passed her last November

I don't think she's moved. This was taken this morning.

Ater arriving in the River Tyne in May 2008.

She was up and down the Tyne more times than a hippo on speed before heading off to Rotterdam to be towed back over by Banak arriving 02.06.2008.

Down to the slake to turn and back up again 12.04.13, but to Neptune Quay this time.

Seems to have been hanging around for ages. I thought she was being broken up. Is she under arrest or something?

[tynebuoy]

Or something methinks.

Hi Dave

The Ice Maiden 1 is owned by the Tyneside based recycling group G O Brien Ltd

Thanks Mike. I wonder why she has not been recycled yet then. Waiting for the price of scrap to improve?
