Hi Chaps

Found this exciting photograph on the net somehow by accident

Does any one recognise the ship?

Perhaps Bob Wilson can help?

Hi Bob,

That is the French sail training ship Belem. It is quite famous photo. Do a search and there are lots more pictures online.

Thank you, Colin

it looks a busy ship and not much deck area?

I think the photo is a bit deceptive being taken with a long lens. Very dramatic though.

Are the skimpy sails……Storm Sails?
