ABC Wednesday: "M" is for mayday mooring, that sinking feeling


ABC Wednesday reaches the letter M. Down at Castlefield Basin a once proud vessel needs to put out a Mayday distress signal (from the French "m'aider" = help me!). I have a feeling this boat was abandoned months ago and was moored a few hundred yards from here, with a squatter on board. Someone needs to take some action  methinks...

    I fear what this poor old vessel will look like in the near future. Hope there is a rescue soon.
