The Gaia DeGagnes Passes Belle Isle

My adventure took me over to Belle Isle.  I wanted to show my mother the cherry blossoms and the eagle's nest.  Both were fine.  As I was driving through the island, I was greeted by a surprise.
 The Gaia Desgagnes is a new visitor to this page. 
 She is owned by Groupe Desgagnes out of Montreal and is Canadian flagged.
 She was built in 2018 in China.  She is a tanker and can carry a little over 5 million gallons of liquid.
 She has a double hull and is powered by a 6,000 horsepower diesel engine.
 She is over 450 feet long and about 70 feet wide
I'm not sure where she was headed though.
