Here is a time-lapse video of my last ship – RMS St Helena, at the island of St Helena, South Atlantic – Because it is greatly speeded up, it really looks like a radio-controlled model, but it is the real thing. Very well-produced, and high quality filming – 🙂 I left in October 1992, and of all the 19 ships I sailed in since going to sea in early May 1961, this is the last survivor

Absolutely fascinating video Bob. Thanks for posting. As you say, it looks just like an animated model.
