Fehn Mirage

Fehn Mirage had arrived on 25th From Eregli, she berthed in the Queen Alexandra dock so don't know what the cargo was.  Sailed on 28th bound for Warrenpoint.  She sailed earlier than advertised and I arrived later than planned, so only managed one photo of her rapidly disappearing down channel.
I caught up with Fehn Mirage about a week later, when she was anchored in Mounts Bay, Cornwall and got this better picture:
