thats very empty looking for a container ship, can't be cost effective to run it like that?

The whole cargo was bananas so that was probably all the had to carry.

I was a little puzzled to be on one of those boats for the Passage East ferry in Waterford, back in April. Maybe it wasn't the exact same one, but was a Carlingford ferry.

Monaco Maersk, the largest ship ever to sail up the Thames River, which is impressive when you think of the maritime history of that river.

Three tankers carrying highly flammable cargo, with explosive gas coming off it. What could go wrong...

I know similar videos have been posted here before, apologies if this was one of them.

With your own cranes, you can travel the world and get to the most interesting places. Sometimes the cranes can break down though, especially on a Saturday afternoon with a good bar near the ship...

Tell me about it.

I once passed on the opportunity to go "island hopping" on a 1500 mt vessel with its own loading gear, max 1,5t
Imagine the time spent in ports like Willemstad, Barranquila, Isla Margerita (before Venezuela got ****ed by socialism) and a couple more. total round trip of about 5 weeks

I didnt go because i already get sea sick when i look down in a glass of water.
I once got nauseous while on a 3000 mt on the quays inside the port of Rotterdam.

surely you mean ****ed by an oil crisis and international blockade as far as I know the economy of vuvuzela is based largely on private industry with a smaller state sector. A bit like Ireland really
