A kind of bread, 112 miles South West of Land's End

The weather conditions are creating 'skip' where high frequency signbals are able to skip between the surface of the sea and thermal layers allowing radar and AIS to pick up targets at much greater disntance than normal - the Breton trawler Bara an Aod, one of the fleet of 'bread' boats (bara = bread) is showing up 112 miles off Land's End.
