I am a great fan of the Marine Traffic app and website. In my factory unit at Hamble I can often hear the ships’ whistle warnings as they pass down Southampton Water and in January and on special occasions I can hear the fireworks up in Southampton Docks so it’s useful to identify the culprits. From 1990 for a few years I had a clear view across to Fawley and could see the passing traffic but that stopped when they built a block of units in front of us.
Now here’s another question for the day:
There are seven well-loved cruise ships anchored in Weymouth Bay just waiting to be named.

Yes indeed. They seem to get left out for an exercise run occasionally, back and forwards to Southampton and the anchorage in Sandown Bay.towny44 wrote: 24 May 2020, 14:36I believe they are all P&O except Oceana, and Cunards QE and QM2.Manoverboard wrote: 24 May 2020, 14:28Easy peasy ... just read the ****** **** to find the answerQuizzical Bob wrote: 24 May 2020, 14:12Now here’s another question for the day:
