Sorry, I am really the last person to complain because I have never managed to post any of my own photos, but six photos of the same ugly characterless box ship is about four too many. Hard to believe sleepy old Prince Rupert now warrants a large vessel to be named for it. Of course, it is strategically placed for ships on the Trans-Pacific trade with 550 fewer miles to steam before reaching Vancouver/Seattle area, and it is also fairly well served by the national railway system.

Nick.

PS I'll admit I am pretty hard to satisfy because I only enjoy pictures of ships with the funnel set in the middle!. N
