What’s this?
This metal raft was found drifting in the Medway off Thunderbolt Pier on Saturday and after being reported to Medway VTS was secured to a buoy by the tug Nipashore. Does anyone know what it is and how it came to be drifting?

Surely VTS should know, however, difficult to see from Liverpool…
Seriously, isn’t something that has been moored off the Royal Engineers slip?
Good point Nick. John Kempton also says (via our Facebook page) it is now moored at the Royal Engineers so perhaps it belongs to them. I have to say Medway VTS did not seem particularly interested despite them admitting several people had reported it.
The ‘Army’ green box looked of a military nature to me! Glad ‘she’ has found her proper home again.
