Hi fellow shipspotters,

Bad luck for the Humber Way and shipping company Ferryways. It is the third incident in 6 months with the Humber Way. At the end of Septmber 2006 the vessel was involved in a collision with a pile in the port of Ostend en 10 days later again. After the second collision the captain of the Humber Way was sacked. More about the incidents can you find on http://xsbb.nl/phpbb/viewtopic.php?id=shiphunters&t=637089 and http://xsbb.nl/phpbb/viewtopic.php?id=shiphunters&t=644048. (Ship-Hunters forum).

greetz,
