Ships and Things

Sunday evening. It's blue out. Polar Enterprise is still at the terminal, and Alaskan Legend is anchored in the middle of the harbor. The Kapitan Man is coming out of Puget Sound and approaching Ediz Hook, outbound. Destination Provideniya, according to marinetraffic.com, though I can't quite imagine why. I go out to take a look at her, and find her crossing paths with Hapag-Lloyd Savannah Express, inbound. Savannah is carrying almost no containers, which seems odd.

The cobblehenge builders have been at work here and there along the Hook. It's incredibly blue out.
