    Rats! I’m going to start following your Tweets! I missed this one. I did catch the littoral combat ship going by at 46.9 knots though. See that one?

    Yea, I see a lot of funky ships go by, including the LCS, a hydrofoil and a Stealth testing ship.

    Search this blog for Sealion or Hydrofoil.

    Great pictures by the way. My camera is somewhat limited at that range. I’ll just have to continue enjoying the view with binoculars.

    It is the bow section of a submarine. We were towing it from Newport News Shipyard to Electric Boat in Groton, CT. It’s sitting on the jack-up barge “Sea Shuttle”. Nice Shot.
