Title: Seven Navica
Post by: Bryan Young on November 10, 2008, 02:46:47 pm

Another unusual visitor to the Tyne. "Seven Navica"...registered in Douglas I.O.M. I don't know who owns her but she is a very impressive and purposeful looking ship. I found it rather nice that a ship built for heavy industrial work could also be designed with a superstructure that would not look out of place on a yacht (a big yacht). The ultimate prototype for a model?

Very stylish bridge / superstructure!

.... I wonder how much cable the drum can carry?
