Description:

13/11/2006, Port of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Islas Canarias, Spain.

Originally built for the C.E.G.B., then latterly, a Holyhead Towing company vessel.
The free surface effect of that water in the hold, must have made the ship roll incessantly in the Atlantic.

A hopper ash barge, split-hull, hinged on centre-line, used in conjunction with dredging operations.
Twin engines, twin propellers:
Twin M6cyl oil 2SA 222x292mm 1294bhp 952kW, 2-screw.
Type Blackstone ESL6MK2.

The vessel was on her delivery voyage from the UK to new Nigerian owners.
She had called at Las Palmas for bunkers and stores.

Keel laid on 07/06/1984, launched on 11/02/1985, and completed on 29/03/1985, by Ferguson-Ailsa Shipyard, Port Glasgow, Scotland (565)
770 g.t. and 1,208 dwt., as:
'M.V.A.' to 2002,
'Afon Cadnant' to 2006, and
'Endeavour' until sold to Nigeria for demolition, which occurred during January 2018.Pictured alongside at Las Palmas on 13/11/2006, while on her delivery voyage to new Nigerian owners.
