Crossing the Solent.
One of the many hazards facing a ship's navigators who are transiting the Solent Southampton are the numerous small boats that use the Solent for recreational purposes. This image shows the Maltese Registered Chemical/Oil tanker Patnos transiting the deep water shipping channel and heading towards the Isle of Wight, having departed the Fawley oil refinery a little while earlier. This image was captured in July 2016.
