Here was the previous post in the series.
Rhino . . . sibling of Wildebeest, a beastly tanker I photographed here some time back. with names like these,
I imagine the sixth boro as the Serengeti.
STX Ace 6 . . . hmmmm.
And yet another bulk carrier emptied out at the salty pile, it’s
Pacific Basin’s Cape Henry.
And off the starboard bow in the distance, it’s
poetically named Seasong.
and to close it out . . . all these vessels are in the sixth boro as of this writing . . . Lian Xing Hu.

I like the Creativity in naming these vessels, especially the tankers.
Un-like Rocky One’s Sohio Resolute, with stevedores, and loan sharks no less. The Sohio Resolute had giant cargo oil pumps, and hoses. They weren’t slinging barrels of product like on the Mary Celeste! They weren’t betting on the winners either, they owed Gazzo big time.
As always thanks!
