Johnno

Another vessel i Skippered for a short while was Johnno ex Bandick in her final days hold half full of water at colchester after which she was towed to maldon and had the hole welded up and half one side cut out to become a dry dock to hold the sailing barge Dawn for a long refit after this she was cut up to the waterline for scrap and her hulk put in Heybridge creek opposite maldon where she remains sunk to this day PS i never left her like this !!!!!

Queenford

Not very good photos as i took them a long time ago on an old cheap camera as we all used to have in those days !! but at least the memories never fade !! Her is the Tower Marie just on her first frieght for Sullys and still in her Tower livery she is alongside Queenford,of J.T.Palmers and sullys subro Victor ex everards formality i think !! those were the days soon as it was bad weather we all used to head for windy haven !! and procceed to the round table of the local cafe crew on one table skippers on another and the night began .also is the crossing we made on Queenford after the wind abaited.last photo is of the Queenford on Palmers yard at Denton for a refit alongside is the Glass island and behind is the subro Viking all laid up having Xmas holls and a paint up in the distance are the cranes on Denton Wharf they have all been recycled now !!!
