Visiting Ship in Galway Bay
***Update: she’s too big to enter the port. She is in Galway for “stores and spares” according to the authorities.***
You may have spotted the massive Panama-registered bulk carrier, Nordic Barents, which has been in the bay since yesterday.
It was photographed this morning off the coast of Bearna, obviously waiting to enter Galway Port.
An Irish Navy ship seemed to be making a social call earlier 😬😬😬.
...
The crew has travelled a long distance - leaving Puerto Cabello, Venezuela, on January 11th.
