Ugly Ships

I sailed on the Nevasa, and of course who could ever forget the Uganda!

 

Not me anyway!

 

I was patched on the Uganda and then transferred to Intrepid. Lost my SLR on transferring to the Uganda* and had to complete a S126 for its loss when I got back.

The late Steve Jobs' iYacht has been completed.

It's a bit of an aquired taste...

It is quite ... remarkable.

 

Very architectural. Like a Frank Lloyd Wright home set adrift. It would certainly stand out - even docked in the harbour at Monte Carlo or off Cap Ferrat with all the mega's.

 

The more I look at it, the more I like it. Something in it is reminiscent of an early 20th century steam yacht (something like the SS Delphine), quite unlike the stacked superstructure of modern mega-yachts.

This is working on the site for a demonstration wind farm off Blyth, putting in monitoring equipment to look at sea and weather conditions.
