Very good question :confused:

Looking at the time lapsed video of the ship arriving at Felixstowe I don’t think I would have liked to have been a deck hand on board her with that cargo - talk about high centre of gravity!!! :open_mouth: :open_mouth: What sort of ballast was she carrying to stop from turning turtle?

they put on ballast (water to me and you ) to get the deck level with the quayside run some tracks out and drag the things off quite boring to watch an the sea has got to be calm
