In November 1991, The Ross Revenge went adrift in the English Channel grounding on the Goodwin Sands off the Kent coast. After 3 days she was pulled clear by tugs and taken into port in Dover and impounded by the customs. The pictures below were taken on the day she was towed into the Granville Dock.

On a nice calm summers day a few of us took a trip from Whitstable out to the old World War II gun towers off the Kent coast. In the 60's most of these forts housed offshore radio stations. Could do with a good coat of paint now!!

The Red Sands Tower could be re generated see link for details

Just thought I'd put these 3 photos of the ill fated Radio Paradise on this page.. These pictures taken when the ship was being fitted out in Dublin in Summer 1981. It anchored off the Dutch coast that year made 1 broadcast and the ship was towed in.
