We saw this shiny new ship from the Vesuvius ferry back on July 12th. It’s back from the far East and scooping up another batch of raw logs…

Is that a good thing?

The Milau Bulker is a box-shaped log bulk carrier, built in 2012 and caries the Singapore flag. She’s 586 feet long with a 100 foot beam. It seems she came to Crofton from Shanghai and is now headed for Taicang, China.

I saw her loading while travelling on the Howe Sound Queen from Vesuvius on Salt Spring Island to Crofton on Vancouver Island.
