FORTH FISHER inbound

As STEERSMAN passed Cloch Point outbound for Pembroke, another member of the Fisher tanker fleet passed inbound. This vessel, a sistership of one shown previously, was FORTH FISHER. She flies the Red Ensign, and is one of four built at the Qui Xin Shipyard in China. Delivered in 1997, she is 4,972 tonnes deadweight, and her overall length is 91.0 metres. She too was delivering fuel to Rothesay Dock, which she had loaded at Stanlow on the Manchester Ship Canal.
