During voyage 174 of Baco-Liner 1 vessel called at Port of Santander (Spain)
to load 9 fermentation tanks weighing 38,5 ts and measuring 18,29 x 5,41 x 5,61
m each for destination Lagos / Apapa. Dimension of tanks did not allow loading
in barges so tanks were stowed on deck on top of containers. Loading was arranged

concerning delivery, discharging of tanks took place at Apapa Quays and not
at Kirikiri, where cargoes from Baco-Liner-vessels are normally discharged.
