On board the motor tug St. Eval (1930) during the dry docking of the motor tanker North Earl (1956) in Falmouth Docks, Cornwall. The photographer is on the towing deck looking aft showing two men bringing the lead wire of the manilla hawser onto the deck on completion of the job. The tanker, seen from dead astern, is completely inside No. 4 graving dock and the dock gate is in position. The Royal Fleet Auxiliary helicopter support ship Engadine (1966) is under refit in the adjoining No. 3 graving dock. Transparencies numbers P63560CT to P63640CT inclusive were taken on the same day.
