MV GUAYANA at Guaranao, Venezuela. My third ship as Chief Mate and with 12 single op. derricks to handle, maintain and service...jeje.
This one it's my 1000 shot on Shipspotting in almost 9 years. Thanks for your support.
With the type of cargo (waste paper bales) a lot of paper and pencil stability calculations needed. The initial GM calculations usually to the hell, and praying for good weather ( or at least no rain...you know,...the extra weight added by the absorption of water all over the deck cargo ) and on the other side, the danger of fire at any time. The sistership MV Santo Tome ( and from the same Ship. Company ) was destroyed by fire while discharging her cargo of waste paper at the same port 8 months before this shot was taken. I uploaded time ago several shots of the wreck.
Looks like one of todays mini-mega boxes jejeje, but with waste paper bales on deck (up to the bridge windows). The rolling period lasted an eternity ( in safe way of course ).

Much better at Full Screen.
