| Windmill blades aboard Allcargo Laxmi |
The vessel I joined around mid march is a small sized general cargo carrier. The vessel is trading along west coast of India. The weather during this period of time is any sailor’s dream. Slight or rippled sea, no or short low swell. There is hardly any rolling or pitching. The sun shines brightly spreading cheer all around.
During this time we have carried Bentonite (a kind of clay with thousand of uses)and steel pipes from Kandla (shipper: Welspun) for GAIL (Gas authority of India Ltd.) at Cochin.
But the most interesting cargo has been the windmill blades (by Suzlon). They are loaded on hatch tops and run to about 60 meters long. At one time we loaded 18 numbers of them. So far, we have been loading them at New Mangalore and taking them to Tuticorin and Kandla.
And last call Tuticorin, we loaded transit cargo of three sets wind mil blades and wind mill hubs. This cargo has come from China and was discharged at Tuticorin. And now we have brought it to Kandla.
It shows that India is also taking long strides in harnessing the wind energy – nature’s free source and friendly to environment.
We used to see lot of wind mills on the coast of Germany, Belgium and Holland. Now we will get to see them in our own country.
