It's amazing how much container shipping has changed layover time. And dockside cargo handling.

How long does it take to unload those big holds and what is reloaded? Do they leave in ballast to reload elsewhere?

I'm with Seahawks on the interest in shipping and harbor activity. All except for the risk they pose for small boats at sea, cruising on autopilot. Not sure what the watch standers are up to in there.

And just one more question, is your Hot Rod back on the road?

Cheers Richard
Grabs into our hoppers, then into receivers trucks., This was 4 holds, total Tonnage 13,800, took 5 days. Most ships leave here in ballast (empty). Yes the Hot Rod is back as good as new maybe better
