I was having trouble finding any fresh photos of the Whalen, and tried to pull a fast one with this snap of the Maryshev anchored off the Antarctic Peninsula. Apologies. I thought I would likely get away with it, given that both ships are very large, and made of steel. In any case, the Whalen is also very beautiful, and you should attend their July 3rd benefit!They say it's a cold worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09059089212388940864noreply@blogger.com
