Got some nice photos of her in Bangor Bay, N.I. just before she left for Greenock Dry Dock. Great to see her under sail. Two good uses of wind power.

(Might be repeating myself here, can't recall if I've shared this before)
In the 70's Niarchos was the next biggest supertanker operator after the Onassis fleet. My father was the chief technical marine officer for Niarchos and responsible for overseeing the maintenance of his super tankers. What a great looking rig.

Interesting contrast in wind technology
