Another puzzle which I had lined up, decided against it and threw it away. I remember that it was used in a British harbour I think.

FMW Matey Dockyard Truck by Mercury Truck & Tractor Ltd.

Puzzle photo was taken at Portsmouth Historic Dock. Several other pictures of the same truck at the same place can be found online.

BTW the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard was mind-blowing. One of the higlights of our UK trip

Thanks for my 771st point !

The harbour hint made it easy. First I tried Dover, then Portsmouth. I've probably never solved one of your puzzles so quickly !
