VICTRESS and ELBETOR

Two coasters are currently berthed at Shieldhall, the ship one the left - VICTRESS - discharging a grain cargo, while ELBETOR, on the right, has brought a cargo from New Ross, in southern Ireland. VICTRESS was built on the River Elbe by Rosslauer Schiffswerft GmbH in 1992, being completed at LASS URANUS. She joined the fleet of Faversham Ships early this year, and was given her current name. She is 2,386 tonnes deadweight with an overall length of 74.9 metres. ELBETOR has been described previously, see here and here.
