T.S. FALAISE
Looking smart and earning her keep
By Stephen Morris
Heading astern past the breakwater after another crossing.
Purposeful entrance to harbour with two black balls on mainmast indicating going astern.
Entering harbour stern-first past the East Pier lighthouse and the signal pole with one black ball hoisted permitting entry.
Looking smart after winter overhaul at the lay-by berth.
Departing on a fine spring day in her last year at Newhaven.
Lowering the "pilot aboard" flag as she heads for open sea.
Gathering speed heading for Dieppe!
