Honor bound
The crude tanker United Honor made a pit stop in Halifax today en route from Canaport, Saint John, NB for Whiffen Head, NL to load more crude.
Built in 2010 by New Times Shipbuilding, Jingjiang, China, the ship is operated by Marine Management Services MC of Piraeus and flies the Greek flag. At 62,775 grt, 112,795 deadweight she is a middle weight amongst crude tankers, but still dwarfs the bunkering tanker Algoma Dartmouth.
