Plans being drawn up to salvage sinking boat in Canning Dock

A boat is almost entirely submerged in water after it started to sink last month.

A salvage operation is currently being put together out after the France Hayhurst, a tugboat moored at the Canning Dock next to One Mann Island, began to sink at the beginning of last month. The boat was previously moored at the Royal Albert Dock for over a decade, though was moved shortly after it began to sink to the nearby Canning Dock.

An area around the boat has been cordoned off for the safety of the public. The owner of the boat, Cathy Roberts, once told the ECHO she moved to the boat from her previous four bed terraced house.
