More on the demise of MARCHON ENTERPRISE in Manchester.
She arrived on 14/6/1984. The first pictures were taken on 25/6/1984 while in No. 2 Dry Dock. Equipment was being transferred to GUERNSEY FISHER alongside in No. 1 Dock, prior to her taking over Marchon Enterprise's duties carrying phosphates.
