Re Saga Ruby.

May I ask where your information about her scrapping comes from?

She is upgraded to meet SOLAS 2010 and therefore will continue in service beyond 2010.

Sources indicate she will continue 'til 2014 at least

Hi,

She is currently (10/04/2010) sailing south with a destination of Walvis Bay. Maybe one of the rumours( accommodation/hotel ship for the football World Cup) is true after all?

Just to let all you know that the Lili Marleen arrival at Dover on Wednesday has been cancelled owing to her owners, Holiday-Kreuzfahrten, having announced bankruptcy!!!
 
 
All the best

Further to my last.

I did try to delete my first reply.

When I scrolled down on Tomas'pic there is a comment indicating they might be different vessels.

Sorry, typing fingers quicker than my brain!!!!

Cheers

Hi,

Research on this site says that the Willy didn't do very well in 2002 either!

Thanks for the info.

As per the Dover Express article ;-)

Just wondered if there had been any change in livery to indicate whether Navmed is a really serious contender?


Cheers

Three dead after trawler capsizes  
 
A merchant ship spotted the fishing boat 11 miles off Beachy Head
Three Belgian crew members died when their fishing vessel capsized 11 miles off Beachy Head, East Sussex.
Coastguards rescued a 19-year-old man, a nephew of the boat's captain, who was taken to hospital in Eastbourne after the alarm was raised on Wednesday.

It had been thought that one man might be found alive after knocking was heard inside the upturned hull of the vessel.

But after three dives by a Royal Navy team, the noise was found to be gear hitting the side of the boat.

The Zeebrugge-registered Noordster Z122 overturned in a busy shipping lane after it snagged its nets on Tuesday at about 1700 GMT.

  To have three deaths in one go is pretty sad

Coastguard spokesman

Emergency teams were called out just after 0830 GMT on Wednesday when the 19-year-old was seen clinging to the hull.

He was taken to hospital suffering from shock and hypothermia, and was due to be released on Wednesday.

Two members of the family-run fishing business were confirmed dead on Wednesday morning.

A specialist Royal Navy team from Portsmouth made three "hazardous" dives in an attempt to find a survivor, but a third person was confirmed dead on Wednesday afternoon.

'No distress calls'

The rescue team included four lifeboats, a coastguard helicopter, a Royal Navy warship and several merchant vessels.

A Flemish-speaking coastguard interpreter has interviewed the survivor.

A Maritime and Coastguard Agency spokesman said: "It must have been pretty traumatic for this poor lad."

He said no distress calls were made. Other vessels would have seen the boat on their radar, but would have been unaware of the incident while it was dark.

The HMS Severn, a fisheries protection vessel, was on standby at the scene on Wednesday evening.
