River Thames Shipping | Ship Spotting at Tilbury

[@ThamesShips]

River Thames ship spotting at Tilbury and Gravesend on the afternoon of 1 February 2024. There was a good variety of tankers, container ships and RoRo cargo ships along with a UK Border Force cutter and other working vessels.

Great footage from tilbury and nice to see svitzer intrepid again.Really need to get back down there as its almost 2yrs since my last visit.What category are you putting your vids under these days.

Thanks. It is ages since I have done a general ship spotting video rather than just focusing on one ship so I thought I would have a change. Yes - I used to enjoy your Tilbury videos. I am using the "People and Blogs" category. I am not sure this is the most appropriate but it is the one that I have always used.

@ThamesShips I keep putting mine under a couple of different categories but doesn't seem to make much difference. I'm sure I will get back down at some point.My last vid from there was VALIANT LADY cruise ship march 2022. I might try and do a highlight vid from Saturday with the 5ships in one vid.

@@UKShipspottingRailFreightTV Yes - I remember that. Not sure what is happening about the ferry at the moment but it could be that it may be difficult to film from the other side of the river if they stop it.

@@ThamesShips think it's the end of march for them to decide on the future of the ferry.

[@ThamesShips]

@@UKShipspottingRailFreightTV Yes - I think that is the date that the current contract finishes so I assume we will hear one way or another before then. Fingers crossed.
