Kingsferry Bridge - September 1985

On the way home from a visit to Chatham Dockyard to photograph their open day as well as a visit by the P.S.Waverley we made a detour to Iwade to see the KIngsferry Bridge opening.

 

I had seen it open once before, many years earlier when out in my fathers lorry but we'd heard about this from chatting to somebody at Chatham.

 

From what I can establish (I'm not a ship spotter by any means) the ship was manufactured in Denmark in 1981 and was last recorded in Indonesia circa 2001. It is now recorded as "Dead" so either de-commissioned or lost.
