Muhlenau 
Departing in ballast, bound for Brest.  She had arrived on 24th Feb, from Kings Lynn loaded with scrap metal.  There is an interesting picture of her on Marinetraffic.com - it shows her on one of the European rivers and in order to improve her air draft, the top of the bridge, the A frame mast and funnel have been removed and are lashed to one of the hatch covers.  Protection from the weather for the bridge team is provided by a purpose made plastic awning with clear plastic windows at the front - it may keep the rain off but bet it's cold in the winter.
