Once commonplace, but now something of a rarity, an RFA entering the Tyne. Wave Knight arriving from Plymouth for Northumbrian Quay this morning.

Wave Knight has now paid off and will remain in 3 basin Pompey dockyard for who knows how long. It is called extended readiness which her sister Wave Ruler has been in for 5 years berthed off the Mersey.

Apparently RFA manpower is seriously under strength so where do you find the men. Sure i heard recently there are a few hundred spare seamen from some ferry outfit.
Thats all folks. Sean.
