Boa Fortune

Boa Fortune at Greenock

The Boa Fortune, the Solitaire supply vessel, has been moored near two large cranes at the Ocean Terminal, Greenock, (Patrick Street) for two days this week. It was there for a day or two last week. I could not get close enough for a good photograph or to see if there any pipes on deck. I could see the distinctive B symbol on one of the funnels. I couldn't get there until 5.30pm, but people were still working, moving containers around the terminal. The two cranes were not in operation and the Boa Fortune was not directly under either of the cranes, so no signs of pipe loading or unloading for the hour or so I was in the area.
