    There was an oil tanker in trouble in Bantry bay at the same time as the Kowloon Bridge, she had lost a piece of her hull plateing. Her cargo was transferred to as couple of smaller tankers in Bantry Bay, local shellfish farmers created murder at the time in case there was a spill. The Kowloon's sister ship that was lost was the Derbyshire. The cause of her loss was only cleared up in the last few years, the families of the crew had a long fight to find out what really happened.

    Last Sunday, 4/21, the Boston Globe had an article on the Portland Pipe Line Corp. The company operates a pipeline from Portland, Maine to refineries in and around Quebec, Canada. The flow has always been oneway, north into Canada. Now, since there is so much crude leaving Canada and a lack of transportation outward, the company is considering reversing the flow of the pipeline, a southern flow to Portland and waiting tankers. This would allow easier access to Europe and Asia. Just wondering, in time, if any of those tankers would call at Whiddy or Whitegate. www.Bostonglobe.com/Business
