There is only one dredger so the Echo article is misleading. Maybe the dredger is only allowed a certain amount of days it can dredge, this caused the delay.

The crew could be working week on week off, or it could be just a case of letting the harvested sand settle properly in the dock. who knows.

The echo are really desperate to get some bad news from BMD, that why every blue should stop buying it .

Not only that is it these days printed in Manchester?

I don't know anything about construction, it's amazing to me that you can fill in a dock with sand and then drive piles into it that will support a giant structure!

There's a 50 mile wide block of sandstone that everything sits on, The Dee, Hoylake, The Wirral, The Mersey, The City out to past Woolton and beyond...they dug the stone out for the Cathedral from Woolton Quarry. The railway cuttings from Edge Hill to Lime St. Show it.

The sand will sit on this, big metal tubes will be sunk through both sand and into the rock, filled with steel reo and concrete and the concrete base will sit on top.
Sorted

The reason the Shoalway was moored in Canada dock for 5 days was because they had issues with the floating pipeline, seems to be sorted now

The vessel would have 2 crews. One onboard, one on leave. The only reasons for down time would be weather or technical/breakdown.

It's okay, William Shatner just nearly went into space so everything's fine, I guess.

 

[Kurt.]

Done with this club now mate, first Benitez, now a boat that doesn’t collect sand and just aimlessly travels back and forth for reasons unknown.

I heard it’s collecting blue gravel

Lets keep our noses out of it.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

Lets keep our noses out of it.

On the contrary, we have a habit of winning titles on the eve of World Wars.
Let’s face it, it’s the best chance we’ve got.
