[Mac Mackay]

Dutch Runner arrived in Halifax November 14.

I thought I read that they had two (or more) ships, and that it wasn't going to start until May.

Re-flagging and carrying a cargo across the Atlantic to Rotterdam sounds somewhat like a permanent move. Does this mean that Great Lakes Feeder Lines attempt to establish short sea shipping business on the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River has not worked out as well as expected?

The Dutch Runner is in Pointe Noire loading a cargo of aluminum for Rotterdam. The vessel will stop at Halifax to change to a Barbados flag and change from Canadian to a foreign crew. The vessel is expected to arrive at Halifax on November 14th.
