Came for a day trip to Blyth last Saturday - t's market day, or what passes for a market these days.
I think she was a long term lay up in Montrose in the 1980s, certainly she was in the port when I went regularly went up to Aberdeen
and she was orange hull in those days

Maybe they just took her out to charge the battery!
Being a specialised vessel she is probably not employed all the time, but when she's needed she obviously earns her keep.
