Finally made it to the rig, a 45 minute chopper ride, not sure what the flight was like as I slept all the way.
It’s more hurry up and wait on here as the weather is not good, hopefully we will be able to start tomorrow morning. Just a short job, we think! 24 hours to pull all the anchors, short 4 mile tow and then put them all down again, maybe home by Tuesday.
I found this little harbour while walking around Lerwick the other night, only half a dozen boats moored in it, most very small, this old fishing boat was by far the biggest and as you can see isn’t going anywhere until high tide.

I have nothing but admiration for anyone capable of sleeping on a Chopper flight.

How on earth did you sleep on the helicopter? Unbelievable!
It’s either sleep or panic ; )
On the odd occasion when I’ve flown by chopper I haven’t had the choice!
You found a becalmed moment.
Yeah, only place I could find out of the wind and horizontal rain.
“Washed Up”
And color washed out, too. How come?
A very overcast day and processed in B&W.
I love the B&W along with the reflections in that little bit of water for such a big boat!
Thanks Karen.
ery nice catch Mark. Glad to hear you made it.
Thanks Edith, yeah it was touch and go for a while.
Love the contrast between the large and small boats Mark. Safe travels.
Thanks Len.
