Catching the Blacky

The next ship is making her debut on this blog.

The Blacky is owned by Navarone SA Marine Enterprises out of Limasol, Cyprus.

The blacky is a type of duck.

All of the ships owned by this company are named after ducks.

She is under charter to Canadian Forest Navigation.

I think she is heading down from Thunder Bay and she is heading to Montreal.

Which I believe means she is carrying grain.

She was built in 2008.  She can carry 30,000 tons of cargo.

She is 608 feet long and 77 feet wide.

Despite the rust, I think she is a cool looking ship.
