The concrete breakwater takes a battering.This was taken from almost at the end of the fishing wharf seen in THIS photo. This breakwater was constructed in 1872 to protect the harbour. Previously there had been more than 20 shipwrecks.This is what it looks like when it is CALM
Dredging of the inner harbour which is done regularly was completed just 2 weeks ago but it is expected the havoc caused by this polar storm and high seas will have undone the work, and also the breakwater itself will have to be inspected for damage.
Thanks for viewing. Comments very welcome.
