Description:

Fish processing vessel seen at anchor on Elliott Bay. She is one of 12 Aristaeus-class repair ships built for the US Navy during World War II using a hull originally intended for service as a Tank Landing Ship (LST) and served in the Pacific theater at Eniwetok Atoll. Converted to a fish processor in 1974.

In the Spring of 2024, the name was shortened and the vessel was transferred to the St. Kitts & Nevis flag, as seen here. On 22 May 2024, it departed Seattle, with a destination of Alang, India showing on AIS.

Seems if she is heading to Alang it's for one thing only. Such a long passage for the last one, RIP Gordon.
