DAUNTLESS arriving back in

DAUNTLESS - D33

Seen this morning as she arrived back at BVT Scotstoun. She had been out and about the west coast on her first set of sea trials. Clyde Marine's BRUISER (bow) and BATTLER (stern) were in attendance.


Passing No.3 dry dock. This is the main fitting out dock and as you can see DIAMOND - D34 will be next Type 45 to reach sea trial stage.


Passing the other two Type 45's at Scotstoun. The recently launched DRAGON - D35 sitting high and dry in No.2 dry dock and the recently crowned HMS DARING alongside the Wall.



The view as she prepares to swing at the mouth of KGV dock.



BRUISER looking as mighty as ever.



BATTLER on stern duty.


With the destroyer swung the trio headed back down to Scotstoun.



The view looking back upriver as DAUNTLESS arrives back at the yard.



DAUNTLESS being lined up to berth alongside HMS DARING. The aforementioned coasters berthed up at Shieldhall riverside.



A final look upriver with HMS MERSEY inbound.
