FOSS

The Norwegian flagged palletised cargo ship FOSS, until recently named LYSFOSS, sailed from Greenock on Wednesday afternoon for Skogn after discharging a cargo of paper at Ocean Terminal. The name change is recent, having only been carried out in February. FOSS is a sistership of LYSTIND and LYS-SKOG, which has also been renamed recently, and both of which have been regular visitors to the Clyde. The hull and funnel marking denoting her ownership have also been painted out - 'DFDS LYS LINE' is still visible on her port side in the fresher dark blue paintwork.
