Strait of Magellan

[davidships]

Pacific Basin Shipping's newbuild roro STRAIT OF MAGELLAN (IMO 9503627) broke her lay-up at Tilbury this evening and sailed for Bristol - she had arrived Tilbury 29/8/2011.  Anyone know whether she is going into service, or just transferring to join her suster BERING STRAIT (IMO 9503639) which has been idle in Portbury since 12/1/2012.

davidships, the STRAIT OF MAGELLAN is due at Bristol to be laid-up with an ETA Friday 15th @ 14:00 to join her sister the BERING STRAIT.

Great, that's answered a question that has been bugging me for a few weeks.
I have crossed the Bristol Channel (M5) a number of times during the past month and have seen this new looking RoRo in Avonmouth which does not move and does not appear on AIS. BERING STRAIT.

Cheers
