New Supply Vessel
« on: December 21, 2006, 03:05:29 AM »
Good Day,

I recently heard that the Canadian Company Secunda has purchased a supply vessel from the west coast of Canada I believe.
Do anyone have any information or any news on this.

Thanks
Dean

The EMERALD SEA is leaving Vancouver tonight at 1900. I don't yet know her destination, but if I find it, I'll post it here.

thanks lest69 i check the pacific pilotage web site and a piolt has been dispatched for 1900 tonight. i use the pacific pioltage web site for ships coming and going from the port of vancouver and the fraser port on the fraser river. you can see this web site at www.ppa.gc.ca. lest69 do you live in the vancouver area and have seen the EMERALD SEA and when she was the MARESK DEFENDER .

I live in Victoria, but I was lucky enough to see the Maersk Defender every day while she was berthed in Esquimalt earlier this year. I actually got the 1900 time from the PPA site. I'm running an AIS system at home, and picked up the Emerald Sea as it went by. It's destination was listed as the Panama Canal, ETA Jan 7.

that is good to know she is bound for Copenhagen. i was wondering were she was going to. i looked at the web site that was posted it looked to me a interesting web site of the maresk defender. i wonder if the other cable ships that are based in victoria like the WAVE VENTURE and her sister ship BOLD ENDUERNACE wich are owned by cable&wirles ltd of uk have a web site too. if so i like to see it. i like cable ships they are interesing ships to photograph.
