To provide a bit of extra entertainment, to the "Watching Public" on Plymouth Hoe, and also to probably "Justify" their existence,
the MoD Police were in their "Lets Harrass anyone we can find" mode, and made the most of any opportunity that presented itself.
The "Jet Ski's", in photo's 1 & 2 above, were about 1/3 mile in front of HMS Portland when first seen, and going away from her.
Photo 3 is off to find another victim, after chasing a "Threatening Yacht" over a mile away in Jennicliff Bay !! - a day well spent, and money well earnt !!
