There has been a container ship anchored near Diana beach for the last 2 days. Looks to me that it has run aground and is stuck.

probably off loaded as she is high in the water and waiting for her next collection and delivery. Cheaper and safer to stay just offshore than mooring up until her next order

That's very sad; in fact, it's heart-rending.... (sorry!)

This is the ship that delivers fuel to the power station. In the past i has always anchored just off Lara Beach for a few days before going for the next load of fuel. Suspect that the snooty new eyesore of a hotel has complained about the ship anchoring in front of it - hence the change of venue further along the coast.
