Dyckburg In Liverpool- Problem?

[Stephen Reynolds]

Hi all

Dyckburg has been sat in Liverpool docks for months now. Does anyone know why? I took this picture of her a couple of weeks ago. Her AIS is turned off but she looks in OK shape to me. I have seen people working on her and at one point thought she was being preparing to leave but she is still here.

She is going to be a future subject on my blog @ Shipspottersteve.com so any interesting information would be good.
