After big bang off Rotterdam she was towed to Ipswich first to discharge the cargo and to Dordrecht later on for main engine re-fit. As we have had time she has got from the crew nice make up. After repairs we took inland route to Flushing.
I have been waiting for her in Flushing. Joining for the first time in July 1997. It wasn't impressed view. The only nice thing it was the owners logo, similar to my initials. She belongs to Civil Marine that time. Later I sailed on this ship for almost 5 years and visiting Ipswich, Medway, Shoreham
