Survey Motor Boats
SMB Sapphire (HMS Echo)
Sapphire is Survey Motor Boat from HMS Echo, which is seen on the River Tamar as it returns to Devonport on 14th June 2016. Catching the waves from a passing tug, she certainly has a bouncy ride as she heads upriver! Thanks for all the help provided in clearing up and filling me in on the nature of 'Sapphire' - v.much appreciated! www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9WPfG8893w
SMB Shackleton
Well it is Royal Navy! Its not every day you see a Royal Navy vessel at a motorway services! Survey Motor Boat SMB Shackleton is seen on a low loader at Taunton Deane Services on the M5 on 29th March 2019. Presumably returning to Devonport or maybe Falmouth? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mwzX9JBPBc
