Does anyone know anything about the big amphibian (LARC XV,Fort Liedot) that was reported as being in birkenhead back in august. Is it still there,is it being used-what for.Who owns it?
many thanks Skylarc.
Yes I think it is still there being worked on. Kimpri on here would be the man to ask. Hope this helps.
Isn't that the one in moreton
Where is there one in Moreton?
There is a big thing similar to that on raby drive in moreton
Found a pink limo on Google Earth, corner of Burrel Drive and Raby Drive, same bungalow? :-()
Come back from there down raby to junc borrowdale go over borrowdale junction and think its 2nd bungalow on the drive
Not good pics on google earth
I`ll go see if I can get some pics.
Cant be the same one, I don't think. Image date on Google was august 2012, the one on the dock road was 2013
Many thanks to all who have viewed this topic/or replied.I have worked on & driven both the ones in Hunstanton over 14 years. They are both used as sea going passenger vessels, YES you can ride on them. The roar of 2 12.8 V8 diesels singing together is a wonderful sound. We took one of them across the wash to Skegness in August. For those who want to know more about these amazing machines send a PM & I'll tell you all about them. Why did I ask the Question? Only that my knowledge might help the owner of No67. Skylarc.
The penny's just dropped,studying the pics of the machine on Raby drive, it all looked to low for larc xv. Just spotted single rad in aft end-ITS a LARC V, the baby of the family. Anybody know it's owner or any contact details ? Single Cummins V8 300 B1, or may have later903.
For a real moster Google LARC LX(60), takes 100 tons in good weather . Skylarc.
