THE LITTLE MULTI GREEN, WHICH ARRIVED HERE LAST WEEK ON THE DECK OF A LARGER SHIP IS NOW IN THE WATER, AND GETTING READY FOR HER FISRT ASSIGMENT. 
THE SHIP WAS BUILT IN 2014,IT IS 299 GROSS TON AND IS 26.85 METERS LONG.

Big Ship, Little ship

On Sunday morning the cargo ship Nunalik arrived from Norway with the Multi Green on its deck. The Multi Green weights 299 gross tons and is 27 meters, far to small to come across the atlantic this time of the year.

The Multi Green is part of fish harvesting plant in and around placentia bay, and I think there are more of these ships coming.

Sir Robert Bond...closer to scrap?

The Canadian Registry on the Sir Robert Bond, was closed Jan 25, 2019, very possible it the first step closer to scrap.

I called Transport Canada, and spoke to a couple people and they confirmed that the Bond has been sold foreign, they never had any othe information to add. The Bond is still tied up in Sydport across from North Sydney, I guess all thats left now is to wait for a tug to get her started on her final journey .
