Sky Sails - See what passes the front door.
Spotted on the AIS page this morning courtesy of Marine Traffic was the huge German flagged freezer trawler Maartje Theadora bound for the west coast of Ireland. This boat fishes her way around the world - at the time she was tracked she had left Ijmuiden and was travelling at just under 16 knots - looking around various sites she has been photographed in Holland, Norway, Mauritania, Ireland and off Chile.
Whether she is flying her sky sail this morning is another matter!
Think I'll get one of those for my bike Larry! Awesome bit of kit.
