Shipping connection...

Living next to a busy shipping lane means that I enjoy spotting many interesting vessels on their way along the South African coast. It's nice to still feel a connection with sailing and the sea. :-) Here are photos of some interesting ships that I have seen just off the coast.

A tug gives a tow to a bulk carrier.

 An interesting-looking cargo ship, the Fairload.

 A heavy lift vessel, the Xia Zhi Yuan.

It's amazing that there are ships that can transport other ships!
