Wonder what they are transporting

In recent years Long Wharf seems to be the port's go to for large pieces of industrial equipment. Things like wind turbine parts, large machinery for mills, power plants or the refinery.

I'd think it would be too early for stuff to be arriving for the paper mill expansion/refit but who knows?

The last couple weeks they’ve been unloading wind turbines

A breakbulk vessel, the Brassiana, is berthed at the container port today-- DP World's website lists it as woodpulp.
