Description:

26/11/2016, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain.

A Russian owned trawler.

Vessel was being towed dead ship from drydocking.

The ship was very light with little or no ballast, and I have never seen a ship so unstable (and afloat!).
The tugs towed her at very slow speed and even then, at the slightest touch, she would heel over alarmingly. No wonder all the crew were at the ship's side :-)

Built in 1988 Kleven Loland, Leirvik, Norway (99).
4,042 g.t. & 3,500 dwt., launched as:_
'Atlantean II, completed as
'Novator' to 2002,
'Polar One' to 2010,
'Polar' to 2012 &
'Atlantic Orion' since.
