It appears that the Noble Discoverer (A8XM6) is on station.

This ship Aida was in Dover Harbour, Kent, England today.

I wasn't impressed by the paint job.

A little whimsy every now and then is one thing, weird is something else. The bow "lips" are semi-amusing; the rest of it— I could do without.

I've got a funny feeling Seattle didn't quite know what to make of this:

I doubt the Kulluk caused anyone to spill a drop of coffee. You should hear the stories about putting her into her mooring last September.

Now that I've looked, I must agree. The ancient Phonecians put eyes on their vessels to look for fair winds, but lips?... the old gods must be angry over that one.

Hey sailor, looking for a good time?

That depends; are you blonde?

You've got the Admiral next door.

His tomato plants are barren so he's dead to me.

I was a tow head blonde as a boy.....

But I see, you're not my type......

The ship that Stolichnya built. She appears to be headed back to La Spezia following a run out to Corsica.

She currently lies in Cape May (NJ, USA) harbor. I promise you one thing: she ain't going through the
Cape May canal. I just finished doing that.
