Regular updates for the Manchester Ship Canal plus notification of arrivals (when possible) and a backlog of previous visits.

I also visit Southampton/Isle of Wight 2 or 3 times a year for the larger Container Ships Cruise Ships and Car Carriers.

Ship IMO numbers,gross tonnage,year of build are shown on each photo.

I have also included some B/W Prints which i took in the 1950s/60s from Southampton Poole Gt Yarmouth Birkenhead... (Not the best of quality) but thought they may be of interest.
