It is the Heavy Load Carrier "SEAWAY ALBATROSS" (IMO 9032496) which is now anchored in La Spezia (ITA).

Please Alan, could you confirm me if it is the submarines S519, S520 and S521 or some other.

Thanks, Manuel.

A new question that I'm sure some of you will know. The vessel SEAWAY ALBATROS, Heavy Load Carrier IMO 9032496, left the port of La Spezia (ITA) on 11/03/24 and arrived at the anchorage of Aliaga on 15/03/24. Today 16/03/24 disembarked a ship, probably of the Italian Navy, which was beached in Aliaga. Do you know which ship it is?

Another UNKNOWN towed by PROTUG 18 IMO 8410213 from Agios Nikolaos (Crete, GRC) on 15/03/24 to Aliaga...Beached 17/03/2024.

Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for the information David. I will keep an eye out for your arrival in Aliaga to make a note of it.

Now I would like to ask for the "researchers". On 10/03/2024 the tug Protug 75 (IMO 9559781) arrived towing something? To Aliaga which she brought from Constanta (ROM) on 03/03/2024. Let's see if anyone can find out what it is. I didn't get it.

Thanks,
Manuel
