I Want to Break Free - a photo on Flickriver

            This image is called, "I Want To Break Free" because the ship on the right, Valaris DS4, managed to break free from her moorings at the Hunterston Deep Water Terminal in bad weather, there were 8 crew on board at the time. A massive emergency response from Coastguards, Police, Lifeboat Crews all played their part in making sure that the ship didn't run aground on the Isle of Cumbrae where it was powerlessly headed in the winds.
