Europe; Netherlands; Rotterdam Zuid; Cruise terminal; MS Rotterdam, Boatmen (Roeiers), Bollard, Cable
With the previous posts, it has become clear that bollards are part of a technical ánd labour system. In Rotterdam the latter has taken a specific shape, that of the KRVE, 'De Koninklijke Roeiers Vereeniging Eendracht'. It’s a cooperative association that holds the monopoly of mooring ships to the Rotterdam quays. It was founded in 1895. Back then, rowboats were still used to bring the cables ashore for fastening. For this reason, these boatmen were (and still are) called roeiers (rowers) in Dutch. A picture of their modern transport is here.
This is post number 6 of the new Bollard & Co album.
Thanks for your visit and comments, I appreciate that very much!

Europe, The Netherlands, Rotterdam, Kop van Zuid, Wilhelminapier, Cruise terminal, P&O Ionia, Bow (slightly cut from all sides)
The P&O Ionia visited Rotterdam a half year ago. She was now here for a regular call. The union jack liveried ship had a rather rocky start due to the Covid pandemic during the first year of her commission. The festive inauguration cruise and all the other cruises of 2020 were cancelled.
The ship is LNG powered and a member of the ‘Excellence class’, built at the Meyer Werft in Papenburg (Germany) and is basically the same as the other ships of the class, in service with Carnival Cruises, P&O and Aida – the companies belong to the same conglomerate.
This is number 1135 of Minimalism / explicit Graphism and 301 of Rotterdam Harbour & Industry.

At a Cruise Terminal it isn't all about passengers. A lot of cargo has to be shifted in a relatively short time period

De Queen Mary 2 was na een afwezigheid van ongeveer 10 jaar op woensdag 17 augustus 2022 voor een kortstondig verblijf in de haven van Rotterdam. Het schip arriveerde die dag in alle vroegte. Omstreeks 21:00 uur vertrok het schip tijdens een druilige regenbui alweer richting Hamburg. In de maanden september en december van dit jaar zal het schip de Rotterdamse haven nogmaals aandoen.
