Looking like shes ready to launch

or lurch up out of the water. Passerbys could be left wondering why MV SILS  is riding so high in the water.

R0014435

If you look real close at the bow, you can see why…in this photo you can spot a couple of workmen (to the left of the bow bulb in photo).

Turns out they were there to action repairs to the ships bow-thrusters.

In this photo you can clearly see the angle the ship is on, courtesy of ballast pumped to the stern.

The Nelson Mail talk about it here.
