For those observant ones amongst you you may have noticed the M.V. Mungo has not been around in January. This was due to her being in Dry Dock in Hull for one of her Special Surveys. She is now back in the water and busy again but we thought you may like to see some of the shots of her out of the water during the work.

A pilot sent us this shot of Alderney taken from 30,000ft, we thought you might enjoy seeing this ‘slightly higher’ than normal view of Alderney as much as we did – enjoy!

Busiest Hill Climb Event yet for Alderney Shipping

enrapture — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 11:24:14 +0000

Last week saw the Annual Alderney Hill climb event, always a success and this one was no different. Alderney Shipping shipped 73 vehicles from Guernsey to Alderney for the event – the busiest yet from our records! We would like to say an enormous thank you to the Harbour employees both in Alderney and Guernsey for all their hard work, support and teamwork; it was greatly appreciated and made a true difference with such busy loads.

Many thanks too to the organisers of the event who helped ensure logistics were as smooth as could be. We would also like to thank as always all our employees involved in this work too; for their dedication, great teamwork and continuous smiles J at such a busy time! Many thanks to all!
