Inside the dredging console on board the suction dredger Marco Polo (1979) while under way between Singapore and Abu Dhabi. The photographer is standing in the wheel house looking aft. A swivel chair sits with a large console and a suspended TV screen on either side. The dredger's cutter head is and cutter lifting gear is in the background. Above the window looking aft there is a barometer on the left, an unknown gauge in the middle and a clock, reading 10:18am, on the right hand side. This is Slide 8 of a lecture given by Captain Henry P. Bird detailing his service as Navigator on board the suction dredger Marco Polo (1979) owned by Jan De Nul from 11 February 1981 to 3 March 1981. The lecture consists of 23 slides.
