Yachts At The Bridgetown Harbour

Thanks Milow

No they are not new. Those lights actually can turn a few colours but they are usually fixed on either the blue or white. However, during the many times "Katara" has been here since her delivery, I have seen them yellow and green. Also something you should note is that her name plate can change colours as well. I was shocked to see it last year when they had the green on the name plate was green as well. As you can see in the pics, the lights under the canopies are blue while the nameplate is backlit white.

Feadship 60-meter "Hampshire" is at the port. However, because of where she is, I can't get a shot.

...and "Katara" just switched berths, she's now at breakwater south.

No they didn't, they came on the "RFA Fort Rosalie" (auxilary warship)

Here are some of my pics of "Hampshire" and the surroundings at Trevor's Way when she left the harbour this -yesterday- afternoon.

Well...i'm doing it for you guys, same way that Daniel provides us shots from Gibraltar, Josaver and GrahamF from Barcelona, OutMyWindow from Coal Harbour, Capt Tom from the Pan handle, Other members from the Netherlands who I will not name to keep their identity shielded, and so on, I believe I could provide from Barbados so I try my best.

You can sort-of see "Katara" and "TRIBu'" on "Costa Mediterranea's" forward webcam at the moment.

Thanks Tom

"Hampshire" left Trevor's Way where she was anchored just south of the port and she is this minute pulling up to Sandy Lane Bay. The sailship/yacht "Alexander V. Humboldt is now sailing into the harbour.
