HMCS Charlottetown heading back to the Med.

TARAGO

First visit to Halifax by TARAGO.  Much larger than all of the other car ships that arrive.  Tugs had to bring it up the passage backwards as it is too large to turn arround at the Auto Port.

Noticed something interesting on the top deck.  Looks like it is transporting a fancy Yatch.

GSF GRANDBANKS

Arrival of the GFS Grandbanks Oil Rig arriving for repairs being towed by Atlantic Hawk and Maersk Chancellor  on Dec 10th.  Maersk Detector damaged it during a collision at sea.

Felicity Ace heading out into the evening sun.

Here is a sister ship of Cougar Ace from my previous post.

The Race to Save the Cougar Ace

 Here is a cool article I came across about one of the local ships that visit Halifax.  You can read the full article that goes with the video at http://www.wired.com/science/discoveries/magazine/16-03/ff_seacowboys?currentPage=all.

Very interesting!!!
