When I was young Milford Haven harbour looked like this every day. You could have walked from one side to the other over the boats which in fact they did! It was when they had a real fishing fleet before the bloody EUSSR screwed us over. Local tides and currents etc gives a 36′ tidal difference between high and low tides, necessitating sluice gates on the harbour itself. The fleet used to leave enmasse at high tide and come back on the next but one. It was quite a sight watching them disentangle themselves and leave. Now most of that harbour has been turned into a poncy marina, surrounded by tralala flats. All neat and tidy little wooden walkways and gin palaces owned by the Cardiff fly boys!
Where is this boat jam?
It’s a Taiwanese harbour, Nanfangauo, with boats sheltering from Typhoon Soulik.
