Shipping past New Brighton

Spent a few hours at New Brighton on Tuesday. Along with the German vessel Frankfurt leaving there were quite a few other vessels on the move. Container ship MSC Rohne arrived for Seaforth followed by a "new build" bulk carrier "Palma Bulker". Small carrier Merle arrived along with mersey regular Sigas Duke. Outbound was the LPG carrier Lady Martine. There are a lot of great vantage points in New Brighton to watch the ships go by ;-)
