Look! Our Ship, the Hyundai Singapore, which I have been tracking over the past three weeks or so from Cape Town to Las Palmas, to Rotterdam, to Hamburg, to the Thames, to Antwerp and on to Le Havre, appears not to be Our Ship, after all! Gulp! (blush slightly)
Mind you, I do not have official confirmation of this allegation, merely the word of a shipping clerk in Wellington – and I must believe her, ‘cos she seems pretty positive about her facts: Our Stuff has changed ships twice, and has come via Port Louis in Mauritius. I ask the question: Did any of my readers doubt that Our Stuff was on the Hyundai Singapore? (up until now, anyway).
Dum…dum…dum… Here is Our Real Ship:
Please meet Our Real Ship: MSC Geneva hails from Germany with call-sign DDJH2, currently travelling south (193º ) along the East Coast of Australia from Sydney down to Melbourne at 16 knots, expected ETA 23:00 UTC on 24 February.
We shall wait to see the next port of call after Melbourne. Hopefully, MSC Geneva will set sail Eastwards in our direction on a trip of approximately 2,600 km as the crow seagull flies.
The next day or two will tell. Unless they go sail-about to other Australian and New Zealand ports before pitching up in Wellington next to the Cake Tin.
Over and Out. Roger.
