Great shot John showing he most distinctive feature.

The Navy web site used to state that she was commissioned in 2006; three years before a purpose-built vessel would have been, and at half the cost.

She has an IMO of 9283772

Nice shot John. She actually carried the name Delos briefly after the conversion for some reason. I managed a shot of her at the Australian Marine Complex back in 2006 when the paint was still new. http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=1583500

Wow the ex Delos. I can hardly recognize here after her transformation. I still remember photographing her at Tauranga unloading petrol in the early 2000's.
Great shot.

Regards Robbie
