Torpo

An unusual caller in October was Torpo. Having loaded clay, she sailed on the evening tide of 02/10/2013. Fortunately, the rain stopped just long enough to get a photo as she went round the point.

September at Teignmouth

September saw a welcome busy spell for Teignmouth; the evening of 19th September combined a couple of outward movements with some good photographic conditions. First, Konstantin Paustovskiy sailed, followed by Mermerdelen, which was on her first visit to the port.

The day after Mermerdelen sailed her Peene-Werft-built sister Marcel arrived. Later that week was the first call by the newly-renamed Pregol Hav.
