The final sailing of "Milburn Carrier II" from Onehunga took place last Tuesday, 15 November, ending roughly 180 years of shipping at the Port of Onehunga.
The port officially closes to shipping on 30 November, but no other shipping movements are scheduled. The port's tug, "Tika", is currently for sale, and is available for delivery from 1 December.
Holcim's new (to NZ) ship "Buffalo" is due to arrive in Nelson circa 9 December from Singapore, where she is currently completing modification work. She will remain in Nelson until the end of January 2017, by which time she will be commissioned and made operational.
"Milburn Carrier II" will remain in service through to Feb/March 2017, at which point she'll be put up for sale.
And "Fjordvik", formerly "Westport", arrived in Gdynia, Poland on 14 November, after setting out on her long journey north from Onehunga on 21 September. She moved into the Nauta drydock on Sunday.
