COMMENT THIS PHOTO(1)
A nice posting, the classic lines of the vessel an art now long since forgotten by todays containership naval architects.
On 7 October that year I too snapped this vessel at Rotterdam, a nice underway shot that certainly was one of the highlight of my several efforts on the then bountiful waterway.
As well as the ship, long gone too are the direct services to west coast USA via Panama from Europe, the sparse load of containers on such a small vessel according to todays economics suggested Johnson ScanStar were never going to succeed with the service.
Cheers
Brent
