How to Salvage a Sunken Fishing Boat in Portsmouth Harbour

Boatbreakers were out in Portsmouth Harbour this week. Assisted by Baker Trayte Marine and RS Divers the mission was to salvage a sunken fishing boat. The boat had sunk during Storm Eunice which had battered the UK. It was a mystery as to how the boat had gone down as she is a steel fishing boat which should cope with difficult conditions.
Luckily where the boat sank it wasn't too deep and she was still attached to her mooring. Albeit the mooring buoy was dragged under. With the help of a dive team and a large crane on a barge the wreck was recovered. The salvaged steel fishing boat will now be sent to the boat scrapyard to be recycled.

    Pretty extreme method of cleaning the bilge! I also am surprised that no oil booms were deployed. It appears that there would have been a benefit to having air bags under her during the initial de-watering but I guess with the ability of that crane it didn't matter. That portable pump is a BOSS! I want one of those as my everyday bilge pump. Great job guys.

    @@31144 Nah, they discovered a barrel of RN Pussers and needed a distraction while they lifted it. I had a shot of 50 year old Polly once. Smooth as the baby's. To explain. In WW2, a ship loaded with Scots whisky bound for the US got into trouble, much like this one, and beached on a Hebridean island. The locals claimed salvage rights, and "liberated" about 20% of the cargo before the authorities got there. Another storm lifted her off the shelf she was sitting on, and she went to the bottom. The result was an Ealing Comedy, a film, Whisky Galore, which remains a classic belly-laugh. But the story didn't end there. A good few years passed, and the cargo manifests of the ship, MS Politician, were released. A local historian went white, thanked the National Archives, they could put it back now, and calmly sauntered out. The legends of Harry Potter's flying car and The Flying Scotsman may have been created in memory of his return journey to Skye. The cargo also contained a consignment of gold, and they were certain it hadn't been removed. Now, the North Sea is a place where the weather is memorable. My family were Islanders, 250 years in the Marines speaks to experience. The SAS bid for me unasked, and I turned them down - I'd discovered why the vacancy had occurred, from the Regular IRA. As you do. I made it up with them later, showing some of the blokes from the Sabre Squadron which took down the Iranian Embassy how to do a tidy job, on the Libyan one. Anyway, most of the rough-weather divers in the North Sea come from the Islands, and that made all the difference. The cupboard is bare - and for a while, if your face fit, you might share at tot. Now, Grandpa was recognisable in CPO Pertwee. One of my cousins ran The Admirable Creighton, the antiques shop on the Square in Romsey, a steady source of high-quality antiques - his dad had been butler in half the Stately Homes in the south of England. We think, at least 50. Lovejoy incarnate. Now, if I'd got wind of a 60 year old consignment of Pussers Rum, hair-on-your chest stuff, it wouldn't be any surprise to discover a nearby fishing boat inexplicably went to the bottom, and wasn't left there, now would it? Watch the wall, me darling, while the gentlemen ride by. And it makes a fine tale, at any rate.

    surprise that divers put the water pump in the fish hold while water level still was over the hatch. just wondering how long it took to them realize it does zero difference!

    I believe that the hold will not be open to the water, so the pump will start being effective once they lifted the boat a little and kept it bow down. Anyway they got it out.

    The boat was under for about a week during heavy storms at the time. After being lifted out and checked over there was some underlying structural issues with the hull. So the owner decided to have the engine out and have the rest cut up.

    It would cost far more than the boat's value to return her to service. All the electronics would need replacing and every single mechanical and electrical system would need complete rebuild or replacement. She's scrap.

    Not for us, we've used her for a number of years before she went down. Makes more sense for us to have her recycled now. She had a long life as a fishing boat and then as our work boat. Sadly a victim of one storm too many!
