Vecchio Bridge.
This image of the 54519 Gross Ton Container Ship Vecchio Bridge was captured in September 2017 from the deck of the Paddle Steamer (PS) Waverley. At the time both vessels were in the Solent just off the North Coast of the Isle of Wight. Vecchio Bridge was built in South Korea in 2005, was Registered in Panama and was owned and operated by the Japanese shipping company Fukujin Kisen Imabari. Internet sites in August 2023 report her as decommissioned or lost (scrapped) presumably due to her runnings costs as a result of her limited container carrying capability (4738 standard containers).
