Sparks fly aboard the JTS

Still in daylight, and with the top of the wheelhouse and casing gone the old JTS is about to lose her foremast...
Pendeen gas-axe man Dave Rhodda gets to work on the forestay with the oxy torch...

slashes through port side of the 'H' grame gantry...
and gets a touch over-zealous with the torch....so then has to get busy cleaning the nozzle....at which point gaffer Clive gets a touch impatient...
until the sparks are flying again...over on the New Quay the Scilly Boys is out of the water and being ready to be shipped to the Scillies for the transatlantic race - check out he news on their website.
