A close view of the Sudanese flag flying from the ensign staff of the motor tug Halaib (1980) while moored to bollards at Ballah Loop in the Suez Canal. The photographer is looking aft from the centreline. The motor tug Trinkitat (1980) is moored astern of the Halaib. She has the blue and white patterned Henry Abrams & Sons Ltd House flag flying from the starboard side of her mast and the International signal flag 'H' (which stands for 'I have a Pilot on board") is flying from the port side. Both tugs are on their delivery voyage from Germany to Sudan.
