The Goliath is a bulk cement carrier that berths adjacent to Spirit of Tasmania  in Mersey River. Watch the video for a real " Goliath" moment as she attacks two tugs, both tied up.

They didn't show that on the local Win News , just the picture of the tugs sitting there all crumpled up. Wow now I can see it all happen - thank you Craig. .... Val
