5 Minesweepers along English Channel
« on: April 17, 2008, 07:45:53 PM »
Yesterday a group of minesweepers passed west through the channel and rounded Lands End heading north?
Vessels were HMS Roebuck, HMS Hurworth, Primula, Weilheim and Imanta.
Anybody know where they were going, please?
Cheers
John

Hi John,

They all arrived on the Clyde on the 19th with a number of other vessels according to the Seawaves website.
Anyone on the Clyde know why such a large group of naval vessels are gathered on the Clyde? an exercise maybe?
