Bottom scraping!

Pacific Challenger up on the slipway at Port Nelson.
This is a fishing boat some 29 metres in length and 8 metres in the beam built in 1979 in Japan and weighing in at some 300 tons.
All vessels have to be inspected be it on a slipway if they are small enough or via a dry dock.
I was lucky to get this Blip as normally they put up sheeting to protect the operators and allow them to work in all weathers.
