Sorry that I cannot make it to Sydney. We have prefabricated a 100 ton, one million dollar steeel cradle to go under the ship. The first 2 containers arrived in Scotland start of January 2011, and remaing 3 x 40 foot containers due in February. Assembly of cradle will start in February and and lifting of the "City of Adelaide" will get underway in March. Recent video added of a Dinner which includes a description of the move by heavy lift specialist Mark Gilbert, together with extracts of speeches by Governor and Sir James Hardy. Cheers, Peter C
