  • Ship, VANCOUVERBORG

    Vancouverbourg

    IMO: 9213741

    TYPE: Cargo/Container

    TONS: 6,361

    LENGTH: 132

    OBSERVED: 11-10-2020

    PHOTO LOCATION: Hamilton Harbour

    DESTINATION: NEWPORT UK

    PORTS: Late 2020 … HAMILTON (Canada), NEWPORT (UK), AUGHINISH (Ireland), EEMSHAVEN (Netherlands), KOKKOLA (Finland); Early 2021 … PHILADELPHIA, ALBANY, MONTREAL

    Notes: Owner: Royal Wagenborg. Built in 2001. My sighting was of Vancouverborg taking on grain at P&H Milling Group in Hamilton Harbour. I couldn’t get a good shot no matter what I tried because it was in a secure area. The two best angles I got was from high ground across the harbour with my telephoto, and another shot of the back of the ship outside the secure area. The ship then set off at night, and anchored the next day in Lake Ontario near Port Weller. She then sailed to NEWPORT UK, AUGHINISH Ireland, and three other ports in Europe, before returning to North America.
