Force 10 gales blew the stricken ferry Riverdance ashore at Cleveleys in the early hours of first of February 2008. This is the scene next morning on what would normally be a deserted promenade with gale force winds still buffeting anyone prepared to venture out.

  • It's now been decided not to cut it up. They are going to try and re-float it during the high tides this week.

  • They'll have a job on now that it is completely on its side. Be interesting to watch.

  • Look out for me when they start the salvage operation.

  • nice land mark for blackpool

    check mine out

  • It sure was windy that morning. Should have taken a tripod with me. Maybe catch you later when they start the salvage operation.

  • I live in Blackpool

  • very good video

  • Went Blackpool last weekend and saw this huge ship in the distace... i was like wtf? lol

  • me and my partner went to see it when we visited blackpool at the end of march, its weird its just off the coast of a place called 'anchorsholme park'

  • i liv on norbreck road...weird walking to end of my street and just seeing people still going to see it :P

  • my son goes to norbreck school and it was a pain to get to school the first few mornings with the traffic, yes it was a novelty but its only a boat people!!! still its a bit of exitement for us i suppose!

  • I live near about 10 minute walk from the ferry and it's a complete pain in the arse.

    It was funny and a novelty for about 5 minutes the day after it rocked up.

    Wish they'd fucking burn it down or cut it up just to get rid of it.

  • they had a meeting about the ship yesterday and it has been decided to cut it up :(
