3 Celebes Clover

The bulk carrier, Celebes Clover, leaving port for Mizushima, Japan - one of the longest ships to berth at the Clinton coal terminal. It is completely covering the mouth of Auckland Creek as it departs.. I'm mesmerised by the size of these monsters.

Very nice shot.

Nice capture of this large carrier, FAV

[Pat Knowles]

That is a massive ship but looks strangely flat without its cargo or perhaps it’s full of coal?

[Islandgirl]

Looks huge, great shot!

[Margaret Pengelly]

@happypat Yes it is full of coal. She is about 300m long, 50 m wide and carries around 210 000t.
