The Paddan Tour

The same day - one hour later - interrupted only by a lunchbreak. We had the very best and really cheap sushi! I never expected sushi to be the first thing that I recognize is cheaper and better that at home. Each time I have something to pat my shoulder for I will go allow me to have sushi and be happy (but I will think of the best company to have sushi with).

The Paddan tour is a boat tour that starts at Kungsportsplatsen on the canal to Brunnsparken, out to Göta Älv, to Lilla Bommen, to Lindholmen (my campus, as you all know), back to Rosenlund and on the canal back to Kungspotsplatsen.
At that point my batteries began to give in, I have taken a lot of pics with flash inside the ships, so no surprise.

You have seen this ship in the drydock in previous posts, now it is outside, another one has taken the place inside the dock.

You can see the bulbous bow, fluid dynamics help you find the benefit of these. Drought marks at the forward perpendicular - the design waterline at its forwardmost point - allow precise evaluation of the current floating condition. In this case the ship is empty, tanks have to be filled in order to achieve the desired stability. Currently it is hardly stable, secured by ropes and exposed to only very light weather-conditions in the harbour.
This is the new baby in the box:

It is truck transpoting vessel, navigating decks are situated in the front section.

Back on the canal - it is said that a monster lives in it, and that it looks like this:

It was hiding today.
