VIDEO: Aerial View of Top-Notch Tanker Parking

Having trouble with your parallel parking? How about parking a ship in a specifically designated lot with little room for maneuvering, where scratching your vessel a tad is not an option?

Navigating a vessel through limited space is a challenging task, requiring nerves of steel, even though this video may hint otherwise.

The video shows an aerial time-lapse of the United Kingdom-flagged tanker Galway Fisher entering Irish Port of Galway on Monday, August 17th as the tanker perfectly slides through the harbor.

Galway Harbour is located in the area of Galway City, it has a history dating back to the 10th Century and has just announced the final plans of its proposed new port that would enable the port to handle bigger ships.
