Photo Safari #14 - Named Ships

Blog Blog

Thursday, Aug 11 2011 by

OK, last week’s safari was a lot of fun. Let’s keep the nautical theme going for another week and do identifiable ships. But let’s stick with ships that we can identify by name because we can read the name on the hull or, in the case of military ships, the number on the ship. Since I try to be somewhat relaxed with the rules (maybe after last week you don’t buy that line anymore) I’ll allow boats, yachts and sailboats as long as the names are clearly seen. Karma points for murals with identifiable ships (e.g. a mural about the Titanic, Endeavor, etc.) Maybe there are a few pubs with signs for a named ship or two. Static display ships (in or out of the water this time) count too. You don’t need to read the names of ships and boats on display if you can find a relevant more-info link with info about them.

Post you maps to Street View > Vehicle – Boats for full credit.

Good luck and happy hunting!
