 CAPE WASHINGTON

82 / 51960gt 5620 cars.She was built as Hoegh Transporter renamed Hual Transporter 83

and sold to US Military Sealift Command in 1992 and given her present name.She became

 part of the Ready Reserve Fleet being home ported at Baltimore.She was bound today

from Vlissingen to Baltimore when she landed her deepsea pilot at Brixham.As far as I

know she has only been here once 24/4/1994 when I took pictures of  her from Berry

 Head as she landed a pilot.I think that there were only 2 ships ever built to this Polish

 design the other was Hual Trader now Cape Wrath.
