I had the opportunity to visit the Portsmouth Naval Dockyard on 19.08.11 and took photos of many of the vessels berthed there. Regretfully, there are 3 vessels which I am unable to identify: 2 lying alongside each other appear to be decommissioned, and I believe the other would be an RFA. Is there any way of finding out what vessels were in dock on 19.08.11 ?

Why not just post the photos in "Mystery Vessels"?

Hi,and thank you for the suggestion. I have never posted images before, but have just managed to upload 3 into Mystery ships awaitiong classification. They appear in " New Photos " with heading: Unknown.

Hi Alan,
have you been INSIDE the dockyards? Looks like a ship tour.
I am still looking for a navigational aid I was unable to get because its location inside the military dockyard in Southampton for my pages www.ListofLights.org (http://www.ListofLights.org).
Could you check your pictures please if you find something similar looking like this http://www.listoflights.org/bilder/band_a/gross/A0596.jpg (http://www.listoflights.org/bilder/band_a/gross/A0596.jpg)?
The Direction Light is located in Basin 2 on 50
