I do so agree with John Forte in his email to the Packet on December 3. How people can be so short-sighted about the harbour dredging amazes me.

I have been to quite a few countries and visited a number of ports, and my experience is the same as John Forte’s. These ports are always full of cruise ships, and what is more, the towns, and indeed the whole area, surrounding the ports are very prosperous. 

Falmouth, and all of Cornwall, could benefit so much from the port being opened up to these cruise ships.
As John says – wake up Falmouth!
