Anyone know for sure where the scrapyard is at le Havre?
I have an idea that it might be in the Tancarville Canal here (there's a public road opposite):

But I think that the ferries may have been parked in the "Garage de Graville":

Will the latest ais track not help? I believe they are being broken up by Gardet & de Bezenac Recycling

Yes, Ben, that's the location I suggested, viewed from the road opposite (with a better camera than Google street view!)

Both new ferries arrived today and are now in Tilbury Docks.
