Not All Heroes Are the Cape

The next ship was a surprise.

I wasn't sure if she would be a new ship (and something tells me I said that before).

At any rate, she is the Cape and is owned by Seastar Shipmanagement out of Athens, Greece.

Prior to this she was known as the Heloise and was owned by a Hong Kong company and built in 2010.

She was bought by her current company in 2015 and it looks like she got a paint job since the last time I saw her because she looks pretty nice.

she passes the cement plant on the Windsor side.

I kind of like this one because the lighting is perfect and the background is relatively clean.

She approaches the Ambassador Bridge and gets the full effect of the setting sun.

I kind of like this shot with the Ambassador Bridge in it.

As she is just about passing the Ambassador Bridge.

One more shot.  I think she is on her way to Duluth.

The Cape Passing Belle Isle

So I decided to go boatwatching against last Saturday.  It turns out there were two ships that I was interested in catching.

 This wasn't one of them but since I was there in time, I figured I wouldn't pass up on her.

 I thought this would be a new ship for me but it seems that I've seen her before (based on my tags anyway).

 She was built in 2010 as the Heloise.

 In 2015, she was acquired by her current company and given her current name.

 She is flagged out of Monrovia.

And she is on her way to Montreal.

Sort of a First Appearance

As I was leaving the island, I saw that this ship was downbound.   I actually wasn't expecting to see her until I realized how long I stuck around.

 Her name is the Cape and at first I thought she hasn't appeared on this blog before.  That is until I looked closer at her name and discovered that she used to be named the Heloise.  And she has been on this blog before. 

 In the time since that post and now, it seems that she has fallen into the hands of Canadian Forest Navigation Company of Montreal and is now named the Cape.

 I like this paint scheme though.

And I think she was off to Montreal.
