She is also able to carry out hydrographic surveying and wreck finding and other commercial work under contract. She is the tenth NLB ship to carry this name which is named after the very famous lighthouse at Alexandria in Ancient Egypt, one of the 7 Wonders of the World. Pharos and her sister ship, Galatea were built in Gdansk in Poland in 2006/07. She is 85metres in length, 3599 gross tonnes and has 7 officers and 11 crew. Catalogue number M03 This model is 70mm or 2.5 inches in length. In 2020 there was a news item about this ship which was in Oban port. Because of lockdown the crew had to stay on board before their next duty. But from his gran's garden a little boy could see his daddy who was Captain of Pharos. A case of waving and not hugging. So as we were making Galatea it made a lot of sense to make Pharos too. Brilliant models imho. -
