I cannot, now, recall if it was a Kinloss thing, or an NMSU thing. I do recall the stench caused by the Painter’s raft one year. This was caused by them mixing too much hardener into a resin. This was their ’secret weapon’ and produced many - nay - many, many cubic metres of foul smelling, white acrid smoke, issuing forth from the installed sonar bouy tubes.

I cannot imagine anyone being allowed to do it now, as the tidal race is quite legendary and the potential for ending up in Norway or some such, must be quite - well - large, really.

Happy days!
