Ship Chase 62 - Maersk Piper - a big tanker for my last chase for a while

Yes, my last chase for a while, and what a fabulous ship to finish on. The Maersk Piper is a big tanker, and after a repaint she is looking magnificent as she cruises serenely out of Botany Bay on her way to Brisbane. We cover every angle of this impressive ship before bidding her farewell. On the way back we come across a whale - it's either a humpback or a southern right whale. There are large populations of both off the Australian east coast. Hope you enjoy! Keep an eye out for the return of Ship Therapy. Ship details below -

Great footage! What a weather this is. Tough one! Is it possible for me to use and upload this footage on my youtube page? I share footage from all kind of activities on our ocean. Cargo ships in the 1960s till now, oil rigs, fishing vessels, inland barge ships, navy, etc. Of course full credit and a link to your UA-cam page will be given when I upload. If you want to talk this through via e-mail, that's also possible. My email is on my youtube page. I'm looking forward to your reply. Kind regards. Thanks
