As if the soul destroying grey skies weren't enough this weekend, here are a bunch of grey ships to go along with then..
Two Japanese destroyers are a long way from home:
YAMAGIRI (TV-3515), an obsolescent destroyer now used as a training vessel:
Tourists get a close look at the 76mm gun, ASROC and the embarked SH-60 Seahawk.
YAMAGIRI's sister AMAGIRI:
Lewis Wharf:
Finally a hint of color today:
I read recently that the Nantucket Lightship was up for sale; this must account for her exile from the Rowe's wharf mooring where she used to tie up.
Balcony seat, anyone?
I hardly even recognize the old State Street tower any more:
Hmmm an ultra expensive yacht named 'Black Sheep.' Somebody has too much of Daddy's money to spend..
Recent scholarship has determined that Columbus was actually beheaded by natives, and the statue has been updated to reflect this fact.
Seriously, though, anyone know what happened to the statue? Vandalism?
There's no way that this shack can be in use any more, as suggested on another thread:
This tugboat seems to have suffered some sort of propulsion casualty, or it suddenly decided to lay down a smoke screen:
The JUAN SEBASTIAN DE ELCANO, official training ship of the Spanish Navy, was also in town:
ICA gets into the act:
At least the Spanish flag adds some color to the weekend...
