Arklow Mill photographed in Barcelona from the Serenade Of The Sea on 29 May 2012, I took the picture as we were leaving port for Cannes.
She is one of many Arklow vessels I have seen in Liverpool and on the Manchester Ship Canal. Some of the first ships I saw when working on the banks of the Mersey were green hulled Arklow ships.
Powered by a MAK 6M43C, (5400kW) with Jake reduction gear and a Rolls Royce controllable pitch propeller she has a service speed of 14 Knots. Auxilliary power is provided by 2 x Yanmar (438kW) and a single STX (100kW) engine. Generators include 2 x Taiyo Electric (350kW), 1 x Taiyo Electric (100kW) and a shaft alternator (1000kW).
