Very good one, I just wonder is there a bit of damage on the bow or it's just a dirty ship ?

Hi, the black spot on her bow is (according the ship's crew) oil which is dumped in the sea by other vessels in the shipping lines.
When a high speed vessel like m/v COSCO ANTWERP is going thrue this oil (which is on top of the water) it get's stuck on the ships bow.

Hello Gaetan, thanks for your info - I did never think of the thing, that the ship could have simply gone with high speed through a blotch of oil ! As well I thought that dumping oily waste into the sea is not, what they do anymore, nowadays.
