It's a Ship, not a boat - Ships have lifeboats attached. Boats don't, hence why a submarine is called a boat.
Sorry just being pedantic.
Lovely craft though.
British ship built in Finland I believe.

Freedom Of The Seas, huh?
I've seen her here in Hamburg. Not only seen, but also taken some photographs. Here she is.
After some final checks and a test run on the Baltic Sea, she leaves Hamburg for Southampton on April 27, probably never to come back (as opposed to the previous record holder Queen Mary 2 which has already been here once and will show up another three times – and I mean this year only).
She's coming out of the mist.
Here she is, passing Gorch Fock Park in Finkenwerder, an excellent shipspotting location.
In a few minutes, she will pass Blankenese, one of Hamburg's steepest, most beautiful and most expensive quarters.
Hm. Shall I track down the QM2 this summer again or not?

I have been a fanatic by the Incat passenger HSC catamarans since 1995 when the Cat-Link ferries was founded.
These are cool ships and I like to take a jouney onboard, because of the speed.

I would really like to see the engine(s) of that "F.O.T.S." ship.
Otherwise I don't fully see the point of a trip with it. Like a nice hotel suite in Vegas...or something, but on water ofcause.
