Notes:

[1600px] MS Riverdance ran aground on the Cleveleys coast during a storm on 31st January 2008. Seen here is RAF Rescue trying to lower Dutch salvage experts onto the vessel in winds of up to 30kts. Despite attempts to re-float the ferry on numerous occasions the vessel was eventually cut up over many months and scrapped, not something you see every day.
