NIce pic, wonder if they caught her again a few seconds later when she dug back in. Would have been a nice splash.

that, even though far eastern waters, looks like a typical calm day on the north sea !

Here is another cool tug picture ( at least in my opinon) of the a couple of Crowley boats at work in the north sound from just the other day. :)

Cool (and weird?)... designed especially for North Sea conditions.

The X-bow design. Very interesting and inovative. More designs like that to come, especially in the naval military world. Kind of like Nemos' "Nautalis" from "A League of Extrordinary Gentalmen". ;) :rolleyes:

Hey, just a minute!! That X-box is WAY cool looking!!!

Reminds me of the 1939 Worlds Fair GMC (http://www.railfanwindow.com/albums/album316/DCP_1054.jpg) bus!

We had good weather in Singapore when I was at sea last year, would not want to ride on that one, in that kind of weather. Nothing but barf city.

I took several of this one from our cruise ship off the coast of Rhodes in the Greek Isles.

Kind of drab uh, I think that it needs a splash of color.
