AMT Trader - Barge


The barge 'AMT Trader' arrived at Greenock this morning towed by Italian tug 'Carlo Magno'.

The local Svitzer tugs took over and towed her up to Fergusons Shipbuilders in Port Glasgow for some modification work.

When the work is completed she will be towed to  the BAY Systems shipyard where a section of the aircraft carrier will be loaded on, then transported to Rosyth where the assembly work is in progress.
