Working boats, Teignmouth harbour, continued
Thanks to Penny Mayes for discovering (easily) that this boat is a hopper dredger LinkExternal link Over the bow is a pipe that extends back and down to an open hold. Put another way, a pipe rises from the open hold and extends forwards to the bow. Its name is MODI R; it bears a logo RN and is flying the Danish flag. What is it doing here?
