ARCO THAMES (7340631), 2645gt, completed Appledore SB 5-1974
1974 ARCO THAMES - 2001 PELICANO - 2008 THAMES

Miramar previously showed her as: BU Ghent 29.3.13, but she seems to have been reprieved, with that notation removed and Marinetraffic showing her as still in service. Database amended accordingly!!

River Tees inward bound - 27 June 1980:

Sounds like the scrapper's sold her on......

Registered Owner from the 29th November 2013 is Draga Praia Mar SA, Santiago, Cape Verde Islands.

She was inspected at Ghent on the 16th June 2014, detained for 38 days with 35 deficiencies. Typical for a ship intended for scrap.

She was photographed by Michael Cooper on the 24th November 2018 at Praia, Cape Verde. At anchor.

Cape Verde appears to be an old dredger graveyard. The old CROFTON apparently ended up there as well, never to be seen again.
