Sad story. For the crew in particular.
We see her a lot in Amsterdam. Will take some time now.
If not end of story.

"Merle" arrived Hull pm 19/03/12 to join fleetmates under arrest.

Now that you have attached a photo of "Merle", for which I am grateful, I have a better idea of the fleet in question.
The reason that I asked for a link to the "Oak" is precisely because typing OAK or the IMO number in the search box comes up with "Photo not found"!

[brimar]

Scopio not sure whats wrong with your 'Photo Search' . . I have just put in the imo number for the 'OAK' with a multi photo result for the vessel.

[scopio]

Well, I must apologise although the Ship Photo Search kept saying "No photos found" I tryed the "Advance Search" and "hey presto" the photo gallery appeared! So the search box "normal one" does not seem to know where to look! Apologies to all.

I just typed "oak" in the ship search box and got all kinds of ship names beginning with "Oak". Then I just scrolled down to find the one named "Oak".

IVY due Alexandra dock Hull today from Boston (Lincs) to join fleetmates.
