Re: Tenerife
I can't read any of the letters in the name, but suggest that the second word is PROSPERO.

Re: Tenerife
As my Eyes are not as good as some of yours that have looked at this ,i cannot see any names at all.
However i have been searching high and low,but as yet nothing comes up with that name.

Hope it can be solved Mike.

There are i thnk two Main Ports of which i dont think this ship is at,so as said to aid in search possibly d you know the name of this small port!??
Cheers

Hello
I hope that me contacting you in English will be OK.
I am trying to find the name of a Hopper Dredger that was seen in Tenrife in March of this Year 2019.
I know it is not one of yours,but hope that possibly you may know the one . I have attached a Picture but cannot see the name. It looks like the First part could be Rosalie ----------
I am hoping that you may be able to assist,
My sincere thanks for any help on this
Regards
Vernon ( I attached the Pic so he could see it Mike ) Cheers

Re: Tenerife
Looks very much like sand dredger working off the beach at Benalmadena during my recent holiday there over the last two weeks. She reclaimed sand(if you could call it that) from the channel to enter the marina and then deposited it back on the receeding beaches down along the coastal beaches.
Sure she was of the same name. Prospero xxxxxx rigs a bell for her name
