TUG OLIVER FELIX WHERE IS SHE

[peter j. fitzpatrick]

I believe that the tug is waiting to be scrapped
Can anyone tell me where she is please and why she is going to the breakers .

There's a photo on another site showing her at Pound's scrapyard, Portsmouth. She's very old and looks to be in poor condition. I imagine that's why she's being scrapped.

I sure I saw her in Pounds a couple of years ago but she went to Plymouth after as LUVLY JUBBLY but resumed the name OLIVER FELIX again shortly afterwards. How recent was the photo on the other site?

Bob,

The photo is very recent. Apparently she arrived there only last week. The photo is actually on the shipsnostalgia site, but you have to be a member to view it, hence why I didn't paste a link.

End of days for her then

Peter,

Follow Krispen's link. She is definitely at Pound's in Portsmouth, not Greenock.

Thanks guys , what a shame a useful tug that could be repaired and put back in service
Why do we British waste good tugs when the likes of Greek owners look after and care for there tugs for years and years
