oaw - eels etc

When the yard lads started to scrap the tube worm from the hull of "Twister" it soon very clear that other, more interesting wildlife was present. We obtained this container and collected up various eels, crabs and winkles of varying sizes. The largest eel was probably nine inches in length and very slippery, most were much smaller and easier to catch.
European eels, in the wild, are regarded as "Critically Endangered" so these were returned to nearby fresh water (in the marina).
