Grande Sicilia.
On a day in May 2022 when expectations on my part of seeing many ship movements were high but the reality turned out to be quite different, one of the few consolations that I had was being able to see and photograph the 38671 Gross Ton Vehicle Transporter Grande Sicilia for the first time. She was built in Croatia in 2006, is Registered in Italy and is owned by the Grimaldi Shipping Group of Naples Italy. During her operational life she has also been named Grand and Grande Sicilia B. The image was captured from the Moat wall of Calshot Castle Southampton and shows Grande Sicilia motoring in Southampton Water heading in the direction of the Solent having departed the Port of Southampton a little while earlier.
