Full City

Full City

“Full City” the Panamanian flagged bulker that recently ran aground off the coast of Norway and caused an oil spill when her bunker tank got holed. In dry dock after being cleaned up and awaiting repair. The view from the bow doesn’t look so bad, but underneath it looks like a mess.
The Captain was arrested after the grounding charged with failing to report the grounding in the correct manner to the local authorities, and is still under house arrest in Norway.

    It’s nice to see you writing again. I think I’ve caught up, but was knocked off my chair by the second picture on this entry. What an amazing rock cavern, I thought….then only slowly realized that was the bottom of the hull. Thanks for showing us.
