This is the Norman Trader in Arno's drydock in Dunkerque on thursday getting ready for introduction to the Dover-Boulogne route.
Alongside her on the Quai de Douvres was the worlds largest dredger, the Cristobal Colon, which can load up to 78,000 tons of sand via a trailing suction pipe.
Just over the way was the worlds largest wind turbine installation vessel, the MPI Resolution.
I was there on the Maersk Dover accompanying the Dunkirk little ships and will be posting on this later today after I have sifted through several hundred photos!
