A distant view of the MPI DISCOVERY at Cargo Fleet Wharf 29.03.13

MPI DISCOVERY (9530096), Netherlands, 19533gt, completed Nantong 10-2011

A rare opportunity for a run along the riverside on a Sunday evening arose yesterday, 21 April 2013.
Having checked movements I noted the MPI DISCOVERY was listed as due to sail, albeit about three hours previously!
I found she had moved, but only a short distance, and then parked up while the DJANET sailed from North Tees ahead of her.
That made a 10 mile run to the South Gare worthwhile, but I did take this shot, thinking it might be the only one I got! 15 minutes later I was at the Gare, and a further half hour later was thinking it was time to leave when I spotted the MPI DISCOVERY legs around the bend beyond the Redcar Ore Terminal. Not too long, then, to wait for her to come within range! Ron

Looks like she is off on another Job, Ron. Nothing showing on AIS, any clues from the Port Website??

At least you were in the right place at the right time!

Destination - North Sea!!

Ron

Got her Ron.

She's currently doing 6.7 kts, 30 Nm off Esbjerg, ETA 05-30 this morning.

MPI DISCOVERY taken from Hartlepool early this afternoon as she headed for the Tees - and, even with my rather large 100-400 lens, I was struggling with it!
