Getting to grips with the JOHAN DE WITT 12/03/2016.
Apparently she was getting tossed about a bit and swapped places with SVITZER TYNE soon after these were taken.

SVITZER MERCIA inwards from somewhere 24/07/2016. Couldn't see anything that had recently left so I guess she had been down to Sunderland or up to Blyth.
