Ahoy there ship mates! Dennis Child, Biglorryblog's mate in South Africa who also, as general manager for ROTRAN Multi-axle, has the best toy set in the world has sent me these shots taken by Robin Nezar from Cape Town (thanks for these Robin). Dennis tells me: "Good Morning Brian, bad weather in Cape Town washed up two fishing boats onto the beach. ALE/LASTRA came to the rescue!"

I'll say and what a great selection of shots including the top one on of the Mercedes Actros 3353 6x6 working in tandem with the Daf XF95 to haul one of the unfortunate craft on a massive modular low loader...and the picture above shows the recovery operation on one of those beached craft... just getting it 'upright' must have been a job in itself...

And here's a shot from the 'stern' (ooohh...get you Biglorryblog getting all 'nautical') What I like about this is that ALE/LASTRA found ther time to ensure their name was on the back so everyone knew who was doing all the hard work--and why not?! Now click through here for one more monster boat moving shot...
