Chinese heavy lifters - here to fix the harbour?

We're getting as bad as The Spin now, just wondering if anyone knows why the Hua Yang Long and Hua Hai Long are just off Nairn just now. Here to help out Highland Council with the harbour or a delivery of 120 or so kit homes for a certain field not a million miles from Lochloy?

Possibly come to uplift a couple of old rigs from the Cromarty Firth and take them away for scrapping?

None of the above..

Free Parking is why we continue to have vessels anchored of our beaches for weeks/months on end..

Today (10th February 2018) the Hua Hai Long has just left for Rotterdam, leaving its sister ship still anchored of our beach.

So that's 6 weeks anchored off our beach in the middle of an SAC & leaving nice big anchor holes in the sea bed which damage/ruin the best fishing grounds for various shell fish in the Moray Firth...

People need to wake up to the existing problems not just future threats..
