Looks like an HLV ship - a particularly tall one at that.

Edit: might be one of Durban's new ship-to-shore vessels?

Edit 2: There is currently a Bo Qiang 3060 just off Umhlanga at the moment. It is probably that.

Speaking of magic, are you a MTG player in Durban? I didn't know anyone played that down here except for that game shop in Hillcrest.

There's a shop in Umhlanga, next to gateway, called the big bang shop, travel over there, and you will find that which u seek.
