A distant aerial port side view, taken from well abaft the beam, of the ore/bulk/oil carrier Jedforest (1972) alongside the main loading terminal at Tubarao, Vitoria, Brazil. She has hatches 3, 7, 9 and 11 open and is loading at Numbers 3 and 11 holds. The Jedforest arrived at Vitoria 8 July and sailed 10 July. Alongside the breakwater in the left foreground is an unidentified Petrobras tanker. On the south side of the finger pier is an unidentified bulk carrier loading and a cloud of iron ore dust is emanating from number 2 hold. On the north side of the finger pier is the ore/bulk/oil carrier Docevale (1970) which arrived 9 July and sailed 11 July. The transparency was taken near sunset and all of the vessels are almost in silhouette. Transparencies numbers PCT952 to PCT1068 were taken during the same stay in port.
