HMS Dauntless and Clyde Traffic

HMS Dauntless left her berth at Glen Mallon this morning and headed upriver to Glasgow.

She will host various civic events before departing on Monday, though sadly she will not be open to the public on this occasion.

Here are a few images of her, and some other craft on the river around the same time.

Normand Subsea - Visit to Greenock

The 'Normand Subsea' arrived at the Greenock Ocean Terminal this morning.

She has been before - May 2012 I believe.

She is a Survey and Light Construction vessel specifically designed for inspection, maintenance and repair work, and also serves as an offshore supply vessel.

Tonight I managed to catch one of the Joint Warrior exercise ships as she departed to sea from Glasgow.

Glorious sunshine - but still cold.
