Tug trip for Matz Maersk 1st call
« on: April 05, 2015, 07:59:49 AM »
Enjoyed a trip aboard the tug Svitzer Stanford yesterday at the Port of Felixstowe for the 1st call of the 2014 Triple-E Matz Maersk.

Atanford was the stern tug on this trip, which took us out of the harbour to hook-up astern of Matz, and included a indirect steering section as she took the Beach End turn just at the harbour mouth.

As usual, there's a film of the experience on this site's video pages - search for "Matz Maersk"
