Thanks for your kind comment, Denis! It was a surprise for me to see this ship here. I also like her design, but I was a bit surprised that IHC is building this ship with this size in stock...

Excellent photo, Jos! That paintjob on the warehouse sure makes a perfect background to this very cool looking dredger!
The only thing I find odd is that the anchor hawse is just a hole in the hull, reminding of how it was on ships a century ago with similar vertical bow.
