- It’s unusual to see ships fully laden with cargo entering the port of Sharpness on small tides. Yet here is the FLUVIUS OTTER doing just that! Not much room for error, so see how it all went on this fine June day.

Nicely done, Captain.
Love Google. The ship "Fluvius Otter" is named after the UK river "Otter". Fluvius is latin for a river or stream. A sister ship named "Fluvius Plym" is likewise named after the River Plym.
Great video with interesting and informative commentary 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Great captain! He made a left turn like driving a car!
They make it look too easy, bet it's not though!
Hello Chris. Love your videos of the ships entering the port. Talk about a handbake turn!
Is that an old Mersey ferry hiding in the corner? Possible video perhaps?
Phil
Thanks Phil, yes an old Mersey ferry that has been here for a long time. Looking in a sorry state.
There's a cement plant at Aberthaw, 60 miles down the river Severn. Nice video though
Yes, I remember that cement works when on the tankers in the 60s going down to Swansea
Great Vid As All ways Nice To See Last Time I Was In Sharpness Was In The Late 80s When I Was On The Coaster Called The Tora
The only difference now is the security fence around the dock basin. Otherwise still the same.
Where is this?????
How many tonnes of cement would be on the Fluvius Otter?
Not 100% sure, between 3,000 and 4,500.
