I was in Liverpool for a few hours this morning before having to travel back into Manchester. Billion Trader II a Phillipines registered Bulk Carrier was moored opposite the main container terminal at Seaforth. Further South I parked opposite the terminal at Tranmere where SKS Tweed and Lovina were both discharging. Seeing two new ships at the same time at Tranmere is unusual and it is a shame I didnt have my camera with me. Although it was quite warm a gale force wind was coming up the estuary from the Irish Sea and Mersey ferry Royal Iris was battling through the white caps as she completed her circuit.
New ships seen and added to the list are noted below.
Billion Trader II (Bulk Carrier) IMO 9323053
SKS Tweed (Bulk Oil Tanker) IMO 9122928
Lovina (Crude Oil Tanker) IMO 9308833
Im back in Liverpool tomorrow morning for an hour, might take the camera but they dont linger long at Tranmere and there is a good chance that both ships will have left on the next tide.
