Aproaching Cromarty Harbour


Aproaching Cromarty Harbour, originally uploaded by ccgd.

This is the second Beatrice Windturbine, all tucked up for the winter.

According to the press reports in the P&J, they missed the weather window for installing the second machine. The real story is, allegedly , that they were all ready to load the turbine on to the barge when someone drove a crane into the assembly. Bits broke and needed fixed, the Rambiz had to move on to another job, and so they missed the weather window.

My source - a group of 12 year old Cromarty kids. They always seem to know better than a group of journalists. Looks like this tower is a feature of the Cromarty skyline for the next few months.
