Autofreighter.
When I started to prepare this image of the Vehicle Carrier Autofreighter, captured in July 2005, for upload to the "My Ship Images" web site, it struck me that her design was significantly different to the vessels performing the same function that were built after the year 2000, no doubt due to the fact that in 2005 she was already 28 years old. A recent Internet search (January 2020) revealed that during her long life she had many names including Kebbi (a name she possessed when I captured her image in 2008 that also appears in this Gallery). Eventually she was sold on to a Cambodian shipping company, renamed Elduga and after more service was scrapped in Chittagong Bangladesh in 2015 at the grand old age of 38.
