TRADE CARS...
23-02-2007
The NMT Elise is now delivering New Trade Cars into Rosslare
Europort
for the Irish Market, the Vessel offload`s on No 5
Berth, and has to wait
for the tide to be at a certain height for her side loading stern
door to work,
so far there is no problems discharging the ship.
On her lower deck the vessel can store up to 60 cars, this part of
the offloading operation
is slow because only two cars at a time can only be lifted up to
the main deck
using her lifting deck.

THE ISLE OF INISHMORE
DEPARTING...
07-03-2007
Isle of
Inishmore is doing two sailings per day to Pembroke Dock, in
South Wales,
the vessel is extremely busy with high Numbers of Trailers and
Artics being shipped outwards and inwards,
and at times falls behind her schedule sailing times due
to the high volume of Freight,
and also due to the adverse weather conditions over the pass few
months with high winds, gales and heavy seas,
she had her fair share of sailings being cancelled due to
adverse weather over the Winter Months.
The Isle of
Inishmore was launched on the 4th Oct 1996,
and entered Service on
the 2nd March 1997.
Ship Builder, Van Der
Giessen - de Noord, Rotterdam,
