The turbine blades that fit on to the hub of the main support of a wind turbine is 160' in length with the turbine housing some 200+' tall, I was fortunate enough to be on Felixstowe beach yesterday afternoon when two of the Sea Jacks were in transit towed by tugs heading for either the Greater Gabbard or Galloper field, there was also one barge with wind turbine blades moored up on the old Landguard Quay. The housings were adjacent to these, there are many pictures to follow

The wind turbine blades and housing supports
