The last voyage!

The last voyage!
Seen in Glasson Dock on the Lancashire coast. There must be a story regarding this but what, I have no idea.

Well I was hoping somebody might have an answer, and our friend Toz (below) has researched the story (or at least part of it) for us.: www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3911601

Its the the fishing boat 'Kiboko' sunk in 2014. Thanks Toz

Enjoy the weekend.

A good catch there Herb'.... anyone brave enough - and mad enough !.. could jump in - and hold the wheel purely for a photograph - they'd have to be saluting too !......
Keep good and have a fine weekend - from Dj.

David I have a vision of that here and it is tickling me! As you say they would have to be crazy but maybe you might have done once ?

Blumin heck Toz, you have done well to find this and I give you my grateful thanks for that. We sometimes see something like this and just wonder at what brought it about but never find the answer.

Cheers and thanks again., Herb

An interesting find Herb.......and nicely captured. Like LutzP I wonder if the Captain went down with his ship.

The link tells us what happened then Herb! A well captured and intriguing shot. Would it be expensive to remove I wonder? Let's hope the Captain is safe and well ;-))
Best regards, Rosa.

Thanks for taking a look at the link too. It all looked quite modern to sink, from the earlier photos but they must have had their reasons for not rescuing it. I hear the captain is OK :)

Keep safe. Herb
