Oriental Highway.
According to the results of an Internet search carried out in November 2021, the Car/Vehicles carrier Oriental Highway is dead, which means that she has been scrapped. However, when this image of her was captured in July 2005 from the car park at Calshot Castle Southampton she was very much alive. Oriental Highway was built in Japan in 1980, and had a Gross Tonnage of 28997 Tons. Her design now seems dated which is not surprising as she was already 25 years old when I photographed her motoring in Southampton Water in-bound for the Port of Southampton.
