Impressive bow.
That is a very sleek ship!
The contrast in size really is remarkable.
looks quite regal
Bet that little boat feels really small.
A boat so tiny but which carries such an important man.
This brings back fond memories of the good ship Enotria. When she was about to squeeze through the Straits of Corinth a fellow passenger told me that now the pilot was coming aboard.
At the tender age of 22 I thought pilots were only for airplanes.
A week on the Mediterranean taught me much.
God bless the pilots.
The floating city...
I love the pilot boats. The pilots are usually quite friendly as well and will wave at passengers. :)
So cool! Love the tiny boat, works really well giving a sense of size.
That is a big one.
that's an impressive ship!
Wish I could go with her... As I'm a curious boyo, I had to check: current position, in the Sea of Marmara, near Gelibolu/Gallipoli. Coming from Istambul, and about to enter the Bosporus
Sorry, meant the Dardanelles, of course.
Rob - You are right: the posted picture was taken on July 7...
This is a postcard, VP. Just superb!
Look how big! Look how small!
