Its disappeared into the mist now!
 
SALOMON is now en-route to Vilanova i la Geltrú. Presumably spent the last day/night in the bay whilst the bad weather passed. Now making a dash for Vilanova at 5.7knots :eek:

Search SALOMON on the Marine Traffic.com website to follow progress.

However, something of interest is the three masted sailing ship parked in the middle of the bay. According to the Marinetraffic.com website she is the 1910 built sailing yacht SALOMON. Registered in Switzerland she can accommodate 26 passengers and 3 crew.

Interesting, well spotted. It had been there for about 4 days though so must have been a longer planned stop.
 
So does anyone know what that orange hulled boat is?

It's been there for some time and i assume it's not Easyboat!

I was wondering the same. it's been here for the 4 months that I have I think.
 
How come you guys are fine on the webcam, and I appear to still be stuck in the past at last Thursday? Any ideas anyone, please?
 
The camera is kindly provided by Prestige Villas. I've asked them to look into it:

This webcam is actually provided by Seemallorca.

My guess is that there are guests in the apartment so they are unable to get access to the webcam.

I live and learn. I had assumed that Seemallorca was an aggregator product of local cameras. I've seen other ones in ski resorts.
 
it looks very utilitarian like a research ship or something like that.
 
It’s called Rising Sun, and unless you are Larry Ellison in disguise, no it’s not !
 
We sailed very close to Rising Sun today and it's the biggest and most beautiful yacht I've ever seen. Serious dosh :eek:

Able One

Able One of Whitby has been anchored to the east of La Fortaleza for the past few days.

She is a new build by Parkol Marine of Whitby, based on the design of a class of American Naval tug from the 1940's. There is accommodation for 6 and is listed as a 'pleasure craft'.

Internet talk suggests she is owned by a local (successful, obviously) Hartlepool/Hull businessman. I think the clue here is in the name of the tug.

Photos can be seen on Marine Traffic.
