Description:

Seen here being towed past Port Tewfik into the Great Bitter Lake after suffering a major engine failure while on southbound convoy through the Suez Canal and effectively closing the canal for the best part of 24 hours. The five Suez Canal Authority tugs, led by the large, 15,960 bhp/160t bollard pull EZZAT ADEL on the head, seemed to be making very hard work of keeping the bulker on the desired heading so that forward progress was extremely slow.

The EZZAT ADEL seems very high in the water, considering she's towing...
