Description:

Since May 2006, the barge Falcon 9933 carrying two cranes from Sweden to India is stucked in Brest (France) harbour. The old tug Sea Falcon was unable to tow the barge in rough sea. The French authorities didn't allow the convoy to go further on. After months, the Falcon Shipping Company bought a new tug in Portugal, Leao dos Mares (the orange one on picture), which is 3 years younger than the Sea Falcon.
The convoy : the Leao dos Mares towing the barge AND the tug Sea Falcon (!!!) shoud leave Brest next week. But there is a lawsuit on the payment of harbour fares.
