You are welcome Jadran, it was most enjoyable! I spoke to a friend regarding Maersk Kobe - she is not due in Gioia Tauro until 21 or 22 October, so it is cheaper to anchor in the protected Rijeka bay area than elsewhere!

Thank you for the 'light' explanation, Rick, and for many other explanation you told me.
It was an indeed very pleasant day spent with you yesterday and once again thanks for all !
Best regards & take care,
Jadran

PS
1. When I looked at this image on Full Screen,, it is SUPERB; par excellence
2. After departure from Rijeka container terminal yesterday at 17:30 LT the containership MAERSK KOBE is still remaining on Rijeka anchorage even during this morning ( I don't know the reason for that !?? )

As I explained to you today, the trick is to make the light work for you.
This magic turned the white buoy into black!
Haha.
It was great to spend the day with you today Jadran, thanks again, all the best, Rick
