EDITORS COMMENTS
The Coe Metcalf drill survey ship Pholas, captured in this photo print, is seen gracefully docked in Hull on the 9th of March, 1984. This remarkable image takes us back to the vibrant era of the 1980s when exploration and technological advancements were at their peak. The towering crane and derrick stand tall against the backdrop of bustling docks, symbolizing human ingenuity and determination. As a drilling rig stationed in England's Humber Estuary, the Pholas played a crucial role in maritime transport and shipping during that time. Its presence not only facilitated transportation but also represented Yorkshire's significant contribution to the United Kingdom's industrial growth. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this majestic vessel as it rests peacefully on its temporary home. The calm waters reflect its grandeur while hinting at countless adventures yet to come. It serves as a testament to mankind's relentless pursuit of knowledge through exploration. This snapshot from Memory Lane Prints allows us to relive an important chapter in our history—a time when innovation was transforming industries across various sectors.
