Sighting


Today's special sighting is of the container ship Maersk Alabama, recently attacked by Somali pirates as it was bringing relief supplies to drought-stricken Kenya. Recent reports indicate that the crew has retaken the ship, though none of the reports are definitive.

  2. With a Yo-Heave-Ho! and a fare-you-well
    And a sudden plunge in the sullen swell
    Ten fathoms deep on the road to hell,
    Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!

    Nice blog ye have here. ( and a really nice boat.)
