The mooring frames arrive by truck. These frames will be laid on the land side of the sea wall
and will be used to attach struts from the ship.
They are very heavy and will be concreted in place with steel reinforcement.
The field was not thought to be hard enough to take a 32 ton truck so offloading was done with a hydraulic arm (with radio remote control) from just inside the main entrance gate to the CYE site.
The frames will be moved over to the sea wall with a caterpillar tracked digger during the next week.
