A close view of the Sudanese flag flying from the ensign staff of the motor tug Halaib (1980) while moored to bollards at Ballah Loop in the Suez Canal. The photographer is looking aft from the centreline. The motor tug Trinkitat (1980) is moored astern of the Halaib. She has the blue and white patterned Henry Abrams & Sons Ltd House flag flying from the starboard side of her mast and the International signal flag 'H' (which stands for 'I have a Pilot on board") is flying from the port side. There are fire monitors on either side of the roof of her wheelhouse. An unidentified cargo ship is behind the Trinkitat. Both tugs are on their delivery voyage from Germany to Sudan. This is Slide 18 of a lecture titled "World Wide Ship Delivery" given by Captain Henry P. Bird detailing his service as Chief Officer on board the motor tug Halaib (1980) owned by Sea Ports Corporation of Sudan from 26 March 1980 to 18 April 1980. The lecture consists of 23 slides.
