Rotterdam - Europoort / 2

Situated at the estuaries of the rivers Rhine and Maas, Rotterdam is the seaport in Europe at which by far the largest amounts of the world's soil treasures are transhipped. These raw materials are brought to Rotterdam by the largest ships - the super tankers and ore and coal carriers and together with the agribulk carriers, these are the ships this book is especially dealing with. It shows how impressive they are and how interesting in the company of escorting tugboats, or when berthed beneath the huge cranes.Volume 1 focuses mainly on pilots, tugs and supertankers, while this volume 2 is about the larger ships such as shuttletankers and bulkcarriers.
