Aeolus

Aeolus
The 'Aeolus' passing Sunderland on the way to the Port of Newcastle. A fairly unique vessel, it is used to install wind turbines, with the ship being able to raise itself out of the water by lowering the four 'legs' to the seafloor. This provides a much more stable platform for construction than dealing with swell and tides.
