Berlin

Not a good day for a short half day in Guernsey for the guests on board the small liner Berlin. She left Vigo in Spain on Wednesday. For most of her visit the weather was dull and rainy with a heavy mid afternoon shower that almost hid the liner from view.

Within thirty minutes the weather had changed totally, sunny enough to see the local fishing boat the Petite Mel returning from a day's fishing making the most of the southerly swell.

With the rain now cleared away to the east the Berlin is preparing to sail with the last tenders completing their transfers. The liner caters for just over 400 guests from the German market who tomorrow will enjoy a visit to London, sailing under Tower Bridge in the early evening.
