The 'Ludwig' 1,209 gross registered tons was a frequent visitor to the Ely Tidal Harbour oil terminal berth and is captured here by Bernard McCall in November 1982. A difficult port of call for her since lacking bow thrusters meant that she had to be escorted by tugs to the berth and hence she is rather unusually berthed facing upstream. The image is featured within Bernard's book 'Coasters of South Wales' [187] |
