Royal Fleet auxilliary vessels on the Mersey
After a "lengthy" refit in Cammel Lairds RFA Tidespring emerged from the yard a few days ago and now sits berthed on the CLT at Liverpool pierhead, The remaining vessels of the "Birkenhead navy" still reside in the West Float dock, Birkenhead, RFA Fort Austin and RFA Fort Rosalie. RFA Fort Victoria remains at Cammel Lairds but has moved from dry dock to the wet basin which may indicate she will be leaving soon to start supporting the new QE class carriers for which she has undergone substantial upgrades.

RFA Fort Rosalie on the move to Cammel Lairds 8th October 2018
Royal Fleet Auxilliary fleet replenishment ship Fort Rosalie A385 was towed out of Birkenhead docks yesterday and taken to dry dock at Cammel Lairds by 4 Kotug/Smit tugs.
The vessel was "caught" by the strong currents upon exiting the lock at Alfred entrance and had to drop an anchor to slow her swing!
