Tankers in and out.

The pace at the Nustar Oil terminal seems to have picked up as of late. The 298,000dwt tanker Overseas Sakura made it departure on the morning of the 26th  and a short time later the 274 meter long Rio Grande steamed in and was docked at the recently vacated Ocean Berth One.Also out in the Inhabitants Bay Anchorage the tanker FPMC 21 is awaiting space at the Nustar Berth.
Anyone watching the undockingof the Rio Grande were given an added treat as the pilot 'swung the compass  "to the delight of several local photographers.


The Superport marine Services tug Strait Raven assisted the Tony mackay into Canso lock on its way to P.E.I. APA pilot capt. Elias Dorey was in the Tony MacKays' wheelhouse.
The Mckeil owned tug and barge will be sent on a run between Belledune N.B. and the magdallen islands hauling armor stone.
