STALKER is laying at Pounds scrapyard awaiting her fate as she has done so for a number of years. Being the last of her kind it should be possible to save her, but being on the Historical Ship List and the tireless work of The Maritime Steam Restoration Trust does not seem to be enough.
They can save the remains of the Mary Rose which is nothing more than a piece rotting wood but not the last remaining steam engined LST. I fear that the battle for her survival may be nearing its end since the removal of her bow doors and part of her bow ramp on H+s grounds. Why does this country give up its maritme history so easily.
