This page shows the arrivals and departures at Dover Eastern docks on the
afternoon of Friday 12th June 2009.
I arrived at Dover Castle at 13:00hrs on Friday 12th
June 2009, and the ferries in port were the Maersk Dunkerque,
Pride of Burgundy and SeaFrance Berlioz. I remained on the
Admiralty lookout until 17:10 when Berlioz returned again and
Burgundy was close.

SeaFrance Nord-pas-de-Calais Arrival
Name of ship : SEAFRANCE NORD PAS DE CALAIS - IMO
number : 8512152 - Call Sign : FNBN
Gross tonnage : 7264 - Type of ship : Passenger/Ro-Ro Cargo Ship - Year of
build : 1987 - Flag : France
SeaFrance Nord-pas-de-Calais
arrived
off Dover before the Pride of Calais (having arrived before her scheduled arrival time
of 14:00), but suffered a
failure in one of her main engines and aborted her port approach. She
circled off the Eastern Entrance and called for tug assistance - Dauntless was despatched. As
Dauntless arrived SeaFrance Nord-pas-de-Calais
entered the
port at 14:00. Her engine had been restarted but the tug remained on
stand-by as a precaution. Unfortunately Dauntless was not close enough to
SeaFrance Nord-pas-de-Calais to get
an image with them together.
