Thermoplae.
I recently watched a television programme that featured the Vehicles Carrier Thermopylae which classified her as a "Mighty Ship". At 75238 Tons Gross, she was stated to be one of the largest ships of her type in the World. At the time the TV programme was broadcast I did not know whether I had ever had the good fortune of seeing her. On checking my Lightroom database it revealed I had seen her on one occasion in April 2018 when this image, along with a few others was captured. At the time she was tied up in Southampton's Ocean Dock. Built in 2015 she is Registered in Malta and owned and operated by the Norwegian based Wilhelmsen Liner Shipping Company.
