Tugs at Harwich
« on: September 15, 2018, 11:21:21 AM »
Anyone know why a few large tugs are at Harwich, are they going to take the Paragon rig out?

Any info appreciated

Regards

Bob

Just seen them leave from afar on Marinetraffic, they would have made some unusual photos for this part of the country.
Hope some of the local were able to catch them.

Hi Bob,

I got two of the tugs inward this morning but could not be around for the rigs departure.
I did catch her on her way in though but have not posted any photos on here.

I can email you some if you want
