The function of the hatch/cover that was dredged up recently in the Wells Harbour by the Kari Hege while carrying out channel maintenance, has been solved.
Jim Jones who worked at Telcon Cables in Greenwich advised that the hatch cover is from a marker buoy where the end of broken cable is tied too while engineers grapple for the other end and re-join the cable. The hatch itself is for somebody to climb out during construction or repair. Greenwich manufactured buoys in a separate workshop just off the main cable manufacturing site.
