Bulkers

The port of Tampa has a huge bulk presence. (Above) the Bangcock registered Mallika Naree  was tied up loading sulfur. The loading spout goes quite lov in the hold, presumably to prevent the spread of the otherwise smelly commodity.

(Above) the CSL Metis unloading gravel from Punta Venado Mexico. Part of the CSL Americas Fleet, she trades internationally. A rare sight in Halifax, Her self unloading arm is extended and in operation. (below) a slightly different angle gives a better view of the long reach of the arm.

(Below) the Bulker Maple Star at the Kinder Morgan TampaPlex terminal. Its unclear what she is loading, as the Tampaplex is setup to handle multiple bulk commodities.
