No crude tankers, and fewer coastal tankers, things are not looking rosy.
Red sky at 0700 this morning:
It is not just me that misses the ships. The Atlantic Pilotage Authority has been forced to raise its fees to cover costs, due to a drop off in the number of ships.
The bunkering tanker Algoma Dartmouth moved over to Imperial Oil yesterday and back again, but has not fueled a ship in weeks - maybe not since the refinery closed. One wonders how long will Algoma will be able to keep it here fully crewed with no business.
