CLDN’s MV Celine & MV Delphine at Dublin Port

When these ships were launched, they were being PRed here as Brexit Busters.
However looking at them on VesselFinder, they do more trips to the Humber than to Dublin.
Has something changed?

Pretty much how I imagine wining the Euromillions would look like!

The Laureline and Amandine are regular visitors to Dublin, I assume they offer the same capacity, or near enough to it that nothing substantial has changed - same result, different vessels.

Laureline and Amandine's combined 8400 is just over half of Celine and Delphine's 16,000.

Celine - 8000 lane metres
Delphine - 8000 lane metres
Laureline - 5400 lane metres
Amandine - 3000 lane metres

Ah, that's a substantial difference! Lack of demand maybe?

'Suiso Frontier', the world’s first purpose-built liquefied hydrogen carrier.

Suiso Frontier was developed primarily to provide a means of transporting liquefied hydrogen (LH2) at 1/800 of its original gas-state volume, cooled to –253 degrees Celsius, safely and in large quantities over long distances by sea. This is made possible thanks to a new 1,250-cubic-metre, vacuum-insulated double-shell-structure stainless steel LH2 cargo tank specially developed by Harima Works

Seems like an awful lot of ship for not a lot of hydrogen.

I don't see any ramp, just an optical illusion type of paint job...

This seems like a poor joke, to be honest. That is a pathetic quantity to transport. If the hydrogen was actually powering the ship via fuel cells and electric motors, it would only last about 14 days. Moving hydrogen around using diesel seems pointless unless the cargo is on the scale of a conventional giant LNG taker.

In 2012, Germanischer Lloyd set out a design concept for a zero-emission container feeder vessel. Designed for Northern European feeder services, it would use liquid hydrogen as fuel to generate power with a combined fuel cell and battery system. It would have a full open-top 1,000 TEU intake and 160 reefer positions at a service speed of 15 knots.

The vessel would be powered by a fuel cell system that delivers up to 5 MW to two podded propulsors. A battery system provides peak power. Multiple type C tanks hold 920m3 of liquid Hydrogen to facilitate a roundtrip equivalent to ten full operating days.

The vessel would run on two 48 kW fuel cells and stores hydrogen onboard in 12 x 350 bar (high pressure) hydrogen tanks. The hydrogen is actually supplied to the fueling station as a liquid, and evaporated and compressed before being pumped onto the vessel.

An Australian mining magnate is looking at using solar to produce hydrogen at scale and shippping it in very large quantities to possibly as far as Germany.

I was lucky enough to see three of them out racing in St Tropez a few years ago - magnificent beasts, as they just creamed by us under kite. I'd hate to be the one to have to pack it, though!!

Great pic.

Found this video down the YouTube rabbit hole and was mesmerised by it.

A cracking ship which I sailed on a few times many years ago.. but fecking hell, she's going into it here..

I came back from Holyhead once on Ulyses in a bit of a blow, but nothing like the Atlantic swell Isle of Inismore is pounding into here rounding At Anns Head.

A few shots from a joint training exercise between the French and the British to test the new French emergency response tug.

The FS Garonne pulled the assault ship HMS Albion past the coast of Devon to test out its strength and abilities.

The Garonne is one of four new Loire-class support ships built for the French Navy. They are designed to provide multiple services, from supporting diving operations and pollution control to assisting submarines and surface ships, including salvage and towing

^^^ nice calm day to be out. Very different scene if it was blowing!
