One of a series of vessels built in the upper reaches of the Yangtze originally for Fehn Ship Management as FEHN CHALLENGE. She appeared on Marinetraffic.com several weeks ago in the South China Sea showing Goole as her destination. Aside from a brief stop at Las Palmas she seems to have come direct from China. Her operators are NTO Shipping of Leer.

Her cargo on arrival at Goole included wind turbine blades. Photos of her on Marine.com [in the region of Cape Town and at Las Palmas] appear to show the same cargo. So where did the cargo originate? Usually, wind turbine blades come from Germany and Portugal.
