Sri Lanka has taken control of the Iranian vessel IRIS Bushehr and its 208 crew members, President Dissanayake announced, citing international law obligations. The crew transfers to Colombo via Sri Lankan naval vessels; the ship proceeds to Trincomalee Port. #Iran

Wellesley was built in teak in Bombay, which probably explains her longevity (like the frigate Trincomalee, which is still afloat in Hartlepool).

The bowsprit of HMS Trincomalee. The ship was built in the 19th century and is preserved as a museum in Hartlepool.

Friday, I'm heading north to see HMS Trincomalee (46). It should be an excellent day out.

Sri Lanka evacuated over 200 crew from a second Iranian naval vessel, a day after a US submarine sank the IRIS Dena in the same waters. President Dissanayake announced his navy would take the ship to Trincomalee for safekeeping, amid fears it could also be targeted.

Old photo: elegant HMS Trincomalee, launched 1817, and now docked in Hartlepool, is the oldest British warship still afloat.

(I don't want to be too much of a downer on modern Hartlepool though - it's certainly worth visiting for the extraordinary Trincomalee)
