Hi Aleksi,

your photo was an enormous help to me in identifying this ship. I took a very poor photo of her, still laid up in Eleusis Bay, last month (July 07). The image was taken through the window of a moving tour bus and, for obvious reasons, I was unable to make out any name in the digital image!!

Many thanks.

Rogerio did the great part of the technical job, so I just have to add some details - L 172 B 22 D 12 draught 9, BRT 12 732, NRT 7 717, DWT 20 124. At her times, speed was 14 knots, but - and that is the most interesting thing here - she entered lay-up at this place on 13th April, 1976 ! Much more than the average age of modern vessels, she stood like a living fossil in the shipping world.

Thank you Rogério - I actually tried to find anything about her history but found nothing to my surprise. It is not every day you see tankers like this one...
