  • For the attention of Sam Bond. I have read with interest your article on Ship Breaking dated 6 October 08 and have a project to utilise many large, redundant or obsolete ships still floating, to generate free energy. If you have any statistics on numbers of ships waiting to be broken up or nearing the end of their useful life I would be most obliged to hear from you. Roger Lee. Tel:01492 879234
