Weymouth Tragedy

One of the Yard lads at work knew the fisherman concerned, a very sad way to go.

 

Aparently it was on a potting boat and the lad went over with the weight when he became tangled in the weight rope as it went overboard in 230ft of water.

 

A lesson to us all to be very carefull when lowering our anchor and chain, especially when having rope on the deck from where it has been recovered onboard from an earlier anchoring.

 

never stand on or in a bite of rope
