The passage will be open for maybe 2 months a year and you still need an icebreaker.

Good morning Kelvin,

There should be a search by imo nr. But somehow Mary Maersk looks as if she's still not in the system, although I remeber I found her before. According to my info she's somewhere between China and Suez, on her way to Europe.

You probably did a search through the left side on the frontpage.
I search via Gallery and search photo, which at least should give a photo.

Shipping News and information / Mary Maersk vs Marie Maersk

Am I the only one facing problems searching Mary Maersk on Marine traffic.
When I search for Mary Maersk I end up with Marie Maersk. This is since a week or two.
As far as I know Mary Maersk is on her way to Europe and Marie is still doing sea-trials.

Cheers Fred

It turned out that the Astrid will be scrapped. Too much damage. Repair will cost millions.

The Vale Rio de Janeiro is still in Rotterdam. Maybe you can catch her when she leaves, maybe this coming weekend. You can check her location on: http://marinetraffic.com/ais/default.aspx?mmsi=566173000&centerx=4.051872&centery=51.93697&zoom=10&type_color=7

She's in the Mississippiehaven.

To my info Vale is leaving tomorrow. No idea where she's going, because usually it takes a whole week to empty this big one.
Another nice spot for shipspotting is the end of the Markweg, then to the right, pass the pilots and left, right and yes you may enter this road.
If you live in Rotterdam it's a long ride by bike :-)
