Multi role vessel Doreen Dorward photographed 25 October 2015 hard at work on the new breakwater which was being constructed as part of the Cowes Outer Harbour Project. I took this photograph just as we were entering port at Cowes after sailing down the Solent. The vessel in the background is the Ludwigshafen Express.

She is designed for near shore marine civil engineering applications and is essentially a spud leg pontoon with mess and office facilities. The vessel also has a large deck with a  914mm moon pool.  She is highly manouverable and is able to assist in dredging operations, piling/lifting, site investigations, carrying bulk cargo's or unloading / loading equipment and other items from beaches.

She has twin Ford (150hp) diesel engines and is 30.48m long with a 9.14m beam and 1.00m draft which increases to 1.39m when fully loaded.

Spud legs = 3 No. at 15m

She owned by Jenkins Marine who are based in Poole, in 2005 she was purchased from Dean & Dyball Construction together with a number of other vessels including a Damen Multicat and two smaller workboats.

    My interest in ships and the sea started back in 2006 when I worked for a couple of years  on the banks of the River Mersey. I have since been on a couple of cruises around the Med and in the Far East and have started to take more interest in researching and photographing some of the ships and other vessels seen on my travels.
