Clipper Legend drops the hook

1. Clipper Legend comes to a stop in the anchorages. The harbour ferry crosses ahead and all is calm at HMC Dockyard.

The chemical and products tanker Clipper Legend anchored this afternoon awaiting a berth at the refinery. The ship was built in Turkey in 2004, 6,522 gross, 10,048 deadweight, and is a larger version of the bunkering tanker Algoma Dartmouth, built at the same yard in 2007.

Clipper is a large shipping operation with bulkers, project cargo ships (like Clipper Merlin - see previous postings) and is the largest shareholder in Nordic Tankers -operators of this ship. All told they have about 200 ships in their control at any one time.
