Second sea trials completed
The Vlad V sailed around midnight 23rd Sept for a second workup/sea trials off Belle Ile. Returned to Saint Nazaire 10pm 2nd Oct. At one time she was being shadowed by the Invincible. Turned out this was a French Pilot boat rather than the ghost of the Brit Pilots' boat. Now tied up in the Saint Nazaire Louis Joubert Lock which appears to occupy the same real estate as the old Normandie dry dock of 1942 Chariot fame.
Mr Vlad P says isn't it time the sanctions were relaxed because now is all quiet on the eastern front ? Разве это не истины товарища?
