Endgame! @ 21:00 UTC
After passing the first part of my final examination with flying colours I can finally focus on finishing up here in Bremen and moving to Hamburg! I've once again started to visit the port on a weekly basis and captured some very nice shots while at the same time writing my diploma thesis and preparing for the last exams in June.

First order of business - show who's the man to beat at Vesseltracker ...

    Best of 2008! @ 12:00 UTC
    The gorgeous newbuilding STX Melbourne on a gorgeous afternoon in Rotterdam! Before I get underway with the weekly ship updates I've decided to finish the Ship of the month section early and present the best 12 pictures of the year in high resolution special quality for you to appreciate. The choice was not easy - believe me - but I think they showcase the change in venues from overseas via Hamburg to Rotterdam quite well.

    Expect 2009 to go one better ...
