m/v Gitana - freedom chips

To fill up our freedom chips kitty, Eelco took a short relieve job on m.v Gitana in the Mediterranean Sea.   When he departed he       received a wonderful greeting card from the crew.  
We do value this tremendously.

Storm with mv TEXEL

We all have chosen our jobs. Therefore no complaining. It is just that some jobs are very much influenced by the weather. Therefore gives an extra dimension to the job. How does the big ships handle the bigger seas? Motor vessel Texel from Kustvaart Harlingen, where Eelco currently earns our freedom chips, seems to handle it well.

mv Texel

  Freight arrived neatly packed. Both cranes of the ship needed to lift and move the parcel, With 3 of these valuable parcels mv Texel (Onego Merchant) set sail from USA to France. Since it's the holiday season they can go slow enough to miss the storms around them.
