Svitzer Kent soaks Landguard Viewpoint as they test their fire monitors 20th April 2018

The Svitzer Kent which was the bow tug on the inbound MSC Tina swinging for  Felixstowe berth 9. After the MSC Tina was alongside and making fast, Svitzer Kent is released from forward. While retrieving their tow gear the skipper onboard radios Harwich VTS to say they would be doing a fire monitor test in front of Landguard Viewpoint and wanted the wind speed and direction on the Landguard so they could position themselves.

The water jets start up gently. Thick black smoke poured from the starboard funnel as the jets spray into the air producing a brilliant water show for the people at the viewpoint.
