Dong Jin Fortune a Korean cargo ship

Note: I noticed that Dongjin Fortune was passing through the Kanmon Straits on August 13, 2024 and had hoped to get some new photographs and video footage, but got there too late. August 13th was the date of the huge fireworks display over the straits hosted by the cities of Shimonoseki and Kitakyushu. Wonder if any ships passed under the fireworks... Maybe next year.

The Singapore flagged container ship NYK FUTAGO passed thru the Kanmon Straits of Japan on a lovely but hot (36C-97F) mid-September afternoon. The straits were calm. The air was heavy. The sunset was lovely. NYK Futago was glorious.
