Cloud cover to start the day...
(missed the upbound tanker HARBOUR FEATURE, but have seen it countless times)
First vessel in the channel was the large cruise vessel MAJESTIC.

MAJESTIC downbound

Wasn't sure if it was a private or personal craft. Either way, it's undoubtedly owned by a multi-millionaire.
Apparently, it's a "Super Yacht" owned by new Miami Marlins owner Bruce Sherman.
Completely out of touch with the baseball world, apparently the Florida Marlins became the Miami Marlins in 2012 - more than a decade ago.
Strangely enough, the vessel flying a huge Ontario flag at the back of the boat.
Coast Guard Technician boat made a trip downriver in the morning, returning upriver in the afternoon.

The familiar passenger ship CANADIAN EMPRESS heading downbound.

Noted that she seemed to stop moving, appearing to have anchored just off Ault Island...

She eventually turned around, appearing to enter the Crysler Marina.
Perhaps was waiting for berthing room at the Marina?
Saltwater vessel approaching in the background.
Ideal lighting to capture MARIA G around 4pm.

Perfect time of late afternoon, where the reddish glow generates breathtaking images...

Just realized that MARIA G was the only cargo ship that I saw today...
Completing a day filled with cruise ships was the upbound passenger vessel OCEAN NAVIGATOR.

OCEAN NAVIGATOR approaches before dark

OCEAN NAVIGATOR upbound for Toronto
|
Apparently, there were no ships passing by in the night....
But CSL WELLAND reportedly traveled upriver just before sunrise. Wouldn't be the first time that a Trillium Class vessel managed to slip by me undetected in the wee morning hours.
