Massive ships no doubt... must be awesome to get that close to them, and so many different ships too.

Nice new additions, and thank you so much for sharing! I never get tired of looking at ships and images of them.

JOHAN RUUD looks like a really cute vessel! Actually reminds me of one of those stern-loading ferries popular in the past.
