Wonder were that was? Don't Maersk own trinity at Felixtowe?
Makes me feel a little less guilty flattening a fender when coming alongside.. "That's what they're for!!"
Perhaps he was rolling the bow off the dock, and got a bit too enthusiastic ;-)

Wondered why we haven't seen the Tampa at Tilbury for a while. Looks like Byron did'nt give up his day job after all!

It is in the Coral Sea today. See it here.
I think this was the ship that was 'invaded' by 400 odd asylum seekers off the Indonesian coast and ended up by being boarded by Oz SAS and diverted to an Island.
If you want to see more interesting ship related accidents try here.
Edit: Look at the above website and search for "Glasgow Maersk". You will see that it too likes to take out docks marked "No Smoking".

Wasn't me driving it. I would have used an outboard to slow it down.
