I first photographed the Vehicles Carrier Grand Pearl in 2016 when she was berthed in Southampton's Eastern Docks. This image however was captured at the much later date of 9th of March 2022 when she was in the Solent, heading for Southampton Water and the Port of Southampton beyond. The Panamanian Registered Grand Pearl was built in Japan in 2008, has a gross Tonnage of 59217 Tons and is owned and operated by Cido Shipping of Pusan South Korea. The image was captured from the Moat Wall of Calshot Castle Southampton.
