I think it was working off north Dublin during the week, seems to have moved on now.

LNG tanker Arctic Lady passing very close to the east coast today. Someone of facebook saying she was anchored off Howth earlier.

Speaking of which, big crude oil tanker sitting anchored not far off the east coast at the minute. Likely waiting for her berth and cargo to be ready so anchored in "sheltered" waters between here and there. I bet Dublin CG will be wishing she had gone somewhere else with all this easterly wind forecast.

I was watching her (via Marine traffic) and wondering why she was there. Seemed to stop briefly off Howth as you said before heading on down the Irish Sea. I'm in Dun Laoghaire so had a look but couldn't see anything unfortunately.

A little further afield, but the British are having a fit over an absolutely massive trawler (factory ship) fishing just outside their current limits.

143m long and capable of catching and processing up to 250 tonnes of fish per day. Second biggest "trawler" in the world, I understand.

Very close to the coast, not a usual spot for this type of carrier, impressive from the coast though.

So I can't post a picture,

ADALINE parked off the Waterford coast....

Will all that change with Brexit?

With no deal they will not be allowed fish in UK waters which will extend to 200 miles from the current 12 that EU vessels can fish within.

Has been there static about 5km off Ballyvoile Head for 3 days.

Noticed something unusual on AIS today, unmanned survey vessels in Carlingford Lough.

The very oddly named 'Enough Talk' deck cargo ship is currently carrying large cranes on deck and waiting to enter Dublin Port.

USNS Maury is off the Wexford coast since at least yesterday. Presumably surveying but it doesn't seem to be following any sort of methodical route.

Isis on the way into Dublin port

Jim Gazebo · 08-12-2019 11:31pm

Some amount of trawlers in what isn't much of a sheltered water down bantry bay. Not an easy life.

Saw them earlier but they all appear to be on the move now, maybe it's not as bad as expected or perhaps they're heading for more sheltered anchorage while they still can.

Yakov P. Golyadkin · 12-12-2019 1:34pm

Just looking out at Dublin bay, Mistral appears to be under tow into the port. There's also what appears to be a naval service ship behind it, not showing up on Marine Traffic though. Anyone know any more?

Engine trouble on it yesterday. Navy is probably just standing by.

Mistral still at anchor in the bay and still with a full cargo of trailors aboard. Too windy to tow her in?

Mistral makes the news... Irish Mirror: Group of truckers stranded at sea without hot water for three days near Dublin Port.

Tabnabs · 16-12-2019 10:36am

Engine repaired and back into Dublin Port yesterday evening, that's her charter finished now in Dublin, I understand.

RadioRetro · 02-01-2020 3:55pm

There's a cable layer at rest off Rosslare Harbour. What cable would she be deploying I wonder.

Not too sure, I don't think the new power cable to France is due to begin work for another year or so.

What’s the story with “HMS Orion” on marine traffic, looks like a ghost position as it’s been over Cobh for the past year?

Rumoured to have a submarine escort in some of the more exotic parts of the world as they make their way to the discharge port in Japan.

As far as I'm aware, they are armed themselves - pair of 20mm cannon on the stern iirc

Tabnabs · 12-03-2020 5:56pm

Sailed with a guy who had previously worked on them and, at that stage, there were no guns aboard. The last thing you want to do is get into a shooting match with that cargo. They sometimes had trouble with the Venezuelan navy en-route to the Panama Canal and it was around there that the sub shadowed them.

Yakov P. Golyadkin · 16-03-2020 1:29pm

Interesting one off the coast of Wexford just now (heading north) - no name, instead numbered 216 636092603, Cargo Major Hazard A.

Showing Foynes to Busan, South Korea.

Any ideas?

No ideas but she seems to be on top of the Voge Mia off Carlingford Lough at the moment. Are they transferring hazardous cargo at sea ?:eek:

What's out there.
