Great shot Chris, Car carriers are very rare indeed in Felixstowe. Several years since the last one. The port now seems to be concentrating on containers almost exclusively. We used to see them at Parkeston Quay until the trade moved to the Thames.

Hello Derek,
Like the LPGs, car carriers here are like a rash most days. Considering the weather I was very fortunate on this day, unlike when I took Califonia Luna and APL Ireland, box boats, vis down to one and a half cables.
Regards
Chris
