Just put this one on to show that yet again you can't always believe what you see on a ship....... We expect it on ships of dubious flags of convenience, but to see a British flag ship showing an incorrect IMO number is a little disturbing. The ship clearly shows 9118165 rather than the correct number of 9118185.

Although this photo was taken in fading light, a clearer berthed shot of her has recently been posted by Sandyloch (676589) and the number on the vessel is definitely 9118165. Interestingly, an earlier shot of Sandyloch (515645) shows her sporting the correct number 9118185
