Good morning and thanks for your comments Paddo. It was very pleasing to read that you were onboard at the time of arrival in Las Palmas.

Great album! Nice to see the berthing of the vessel from the quayside for once. (I was on board during the voyage from Nigeria to Las Palmas and signed off there.)

The tug on the left is the Afrik Puffin (IMO 9171993), the tug in front of Afrik Petrel is the Afrik Pelican (IMO 9171979). All three Stan Tugs built at Damen Shipyards Gorinchem in 1998. They were actually loaded in Lagos, Nigeria and delivered to the owners in Hafnarfjordur, Iceland.
