Nice to know that it is possible to catch the buggers polluting the water http://www.westernmorningnews.co.uk/Tanker-spied-space-polluting-seas-Cornwall/story-19889142-detail/story.html just a shame that the fine is merely a slap on the wrist  >:(

At least they had the decency to fly a Danish flag from it and thus, its subject to the rules of the Danish registry rather than some third world African state. 

Bet it gets reflagged to Liberia or similar, still within the Maersk empire, within 5 years......   ::)

Too big for the Panama Canal.  Good candidate for the new Chinese built "Suez canal".

Too big for any port in the Americas. :o :o That might be an error!

My mate works for one of the big oil and gas companies in shipping and spends quite a lot of time in Korea at the shipyards. He must like dogmeat!  ;D
