The Port of Aberdeen
If this works, we are in for a treat on 19th - 22nd July. The Tall Ships race will be in port.

Link doesn't open for me, get a message saying link blocked.
On a completely different subject am I correct in thinking that the Solong, the container ship involved in the collision with the Stena immaculate is in Aberdeen and if so are there any plans and facilities to repair her there?

There is a drydock in Aberdeen, I am not sure of the capacity but could be big enough for solong. I just wondered where they will berth all the tall ships as Aberdeen is a very busy port.
