STEAM TUG BRENT, was launched 75 years ago today! Perhaps as many of six TID tugs can be seen in this photo of tugs on the ways at William Pickergill and Sons' yard, 1945. Maybe Brent is one of them!

On the quay at Maldon, today. Apple TV's production of an adaptation of 'The Essex Serpent' by Sarah Perry, and starring Tom Hiddleston and Claire Danes. I haven't seen them on set, yet!

Well, luckily the rain held off until the afternoon, so we could get a bit done. First the cold winds, now the daily deluges; maybe painting weather soon!

Excellent gangway and steps down onto the aft deck. We're grateful to Trustee and volunteer, Captain Ian Chapman for designing and making them. A bit more to do, but we'll be ready for our Open Day, Sunday 29th August. No more clambering over the rail to get on board!

We have erected a strong new structure to support our winter cover. This won't keep collapsing as the old one did last winter; every time there was wind above Force 6, it seemed, which was often! We are grateful to CSL Global for funding the new frame.
