The time zone is WET daylight saving time.</p> <p>In the foreground you see the entrance to the Royers Lock. This is the oldest and also smallest sea lock connecting the river Scheldt with the port of Antwerp’s docks system.</p> <p>The larger entrances (among which the Berendrecht Lock, the biggest sea lock in the world) are situated downstream.<br /> Detailed information on the port of Antwerp can be found at <a href="http://www.portofantwerp.be." rel="nofollow">www.portofantwerp.be.</a></p> <p>In the background you see the right bank quays along the river Scheldt. Today, they are mainly used by visiting cruise and navy vessels and sight-seeing boats. The skyline of the town centre forms the horizon and you can see the peaks of the KBC-Boerentoren (a skyscraper built in the early 1920's) and more to the right, the Antwerp Cathedral (a 123 m high church of unique elegance built between 1352 and 1533). </p> http://forum.digital-seas.com/topic/meeting-2010#post-1634 Wed, 07 Jul 2010 17:13:10 +0000 Stevo 1634@http://forum.digital-seas.com/ <p>First Tall Ships arrived in Antwerp</p> <p><a href="http://www.digital-seas.com/vessel_search/vessel_details/on/pcds_astrid_q43322.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.digital-seas.com/vessel_search/vessel_details/on/pcds_astrid_q43322.html</a></p> <p>As per latest AIS the Statsraad Lehmkuhl will arrive during our trip on saturday.<br /> <a href="http://www.digital-seas.com/vessel_search/vessel_details/on/ldrg_statsraad_lehmkuhl_q53035.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.digital-seas.com/vessel_search/vessel_details/on/ldrg_statsraad_lehmkuhl_q53035.html</a> </p> http://forum.digital-seas.com/topic/meeting-2010#post-1525 Thu, 10 Jun 2010 13:09:10 +0000 Anonymous 1525@http://forum.digital-seas.com/ <p>Me 2 and everybody else who is going with us.<br /> Lars, let me know with how many you will book hotel and how many will sail with us. </p> http://forum.digital-seas.com/topic/meeting-2010#post-1524 Thu, 10 Jun 2010 08:56:03 +0000 IanJohn 1524@http://forum.digital-seas.com/ <p>@Lars, Thats where my wife and I are staying<br /> Ian </p> http://forum.digital-seas.com/topic/meeting-2010#post-1523 Thu, 10 Jun 2010 07:48:17 +0000 Anonymous 1523@http://forum.digital-seas.com/ <p>We have a special price for all shipspotters.<br /> Just tell them you're from the TallShipWeekend</p> <p><a href="http://www.hampshire-hotels.com/hotel_details.php?lan=de&#38;hotelId=20" rel="nofollow">http://www.hampshire-hotels.com/hotel_details.php?lan=de&#38;hotelId=20</a> </p> http://forum.digital-seas.com/topic/meeting-2010#post-1521 Wed, 09 Jun 2010 23:07:11 +0000 MindOpen 1521@http://forum.digital-seas.com/ <p>@stevo: sure I will take part on the trip.
