For our visit to Svitzer tug base on 30 May 2012 our party on the FIERY CROSS was second to embark, but first away from the berth, followed by the SVITZER BOOTLE.
SVITZER BOOTLE (9286683), British, 366gt, completed Santurtzi 12-2003. Registered Liverpool, as might be expected!

Showing off our Tees landmark, the Transporter Bridge.


We catch our first view of the SILVER MARINER at the Redcar Ore Terminal



This one showing off the latest Middlesbrough landmark, the Temenos (you are welcome to look it up, if you wish!)

Back to base at the Svitzer offices.
