Durban, South Africa. 8th August, 2014. The grab hopper dredger, Italeni arrives in Durban on her maiden voyage from the Bulgarian shipyards where she was constructed. The vessel is the second of three dredgers that the Dutch shipbuilder IHC Merwede has been contracted to build for South Africa's Transnet National Ports Authority. It is 62 metres long and 15 metres wide with a gross tonnage of 1000 tons and a dead weight of 1490 tons. Italeni, which can carry 750 cubic metres of dredged material still needs to have its crane fitted. Credit: Giordano Stolley/Alamy Live News
