One (of 2) Marine Service vessels owned and operated by the Port Of London Authority, sailing down the River Thames yesterday. I don't think I've seen or caught it before...it was built (I think in the UK) in 1989. The other vessel is Driftwood III...

One of Driftwood II's tasks is to collect & remove driftwood from the river: I have a shot, taken earlier this week, of a fairly large piece of such, big enough to have been Nessie in an older, more innocent world.

I have been trying to connect/link this lovely little Canon camera to my phone, but have so far been defeated. My scientific approach to such a task is usually to press all the buttons at random, sometimes twice or more and with varying ferocity, then give up. I have switched something on or off during this and this shot has suffered from whatever it is I did, in that it looks quite like a screenshot of an early colour TV in an area with a weak signal...

The Canon remains a wonderful little thing !

Lowering the Boat into the Water with a Boat Lift:

 

-Hand launch boat hoist only.

 

-Maximum gross weight of boat & trailer is 4,000 lbs.

 

-No vehicles on the pier.

 

-Hoist lifting capacity 3,600 lbs maximum.

 

-Use dolly provided by Port to travel from upland to the hoist.

 

You can use a boat lift to get your vessel onto the water safely and conveniently.

 

Lowering the boat into the water is fairly simple. The boat lift motor has a power switch on it, which you can use to lower the vessel.

 

Turn on the switch and keep a close eye on the progress of the boat. It is important to keep a close eye on the boat and to do this extremely slowly.

 

You can turn off the switch once the boat enters the water and begins to float independently.

 

If your lift happens to be supported by cables, you will notice that the cables become slack – when this happens, it is safe to turn the lift motor off.

 

Your boat is now “launched” – all you need to do is turn it on and drive away from the dock!

Southampton Docks, owned and managed by the Southern Railway, was one of the UK's busiest ports and regarded as a jewel in the crown of the Southern who had acquired it via the predecessor London & South Western Railway upon Grouping in 1923. As well as trade Southampton, along with Liverpool, Plymouth and London, was one of the great passenger gateways as many of the major steamship lines that connected the globe in pre-aviation days used Southampton as either the origin or port of call for worldwide services. The Southern invested heavily in the Docks, even in the years of depression, to both extend and modernise facilities such as the new Western extensions and dry docks. The Docks passed to the nationalised British Transport Commission with the railways in 1948 but were later privatised.

 

The Guide was produced and updated monthly to show the vast range of sailings, both arriving and departing, and destinations served. It also contains information as to steamship companies, dock and port facilities and adverts for associated concerns. This double page shows the Company's own steamer services; like many railway companies, the Southern had extensive , assocaited shipping interests. It also shows, in colour, the funnel colours of the many and various concerns whose vessels could be seen in Southampton's port.
