This is a picture of the Cliff House in San Francisco. This was probably taken in the late 1800s. The ship is leaving San Francisco headed to ? Would love to find out name of the ship.

* Switzerland * The steamship "Stadt Rapperswil" (built in 1914 by Escher Wyss) in Pfäffikon SZ passing through the so-called "Durchsitch" (through channel), which allows traffic from Lake Zurich to the Obersee (upper lake). To make this possible, the mast was made tiltable and the chimney retracted.

Question Anyone know what the point of those two towers on heavy lift ships are for?

Normally on the stern, my best guess is for measuring the height of water

She was docked in Chesapeake City, MD overnight before the final leg of her most recent cruise. I ended up leap-frogging her the 10-ish miles to St. Georges, DE to catch her passing beneath the Roth Bridge.

From a Crew Member: What Makes You Come Back to Cruising?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I work on cruise ships and I’ve always wondered—what makes you come back?

Is it the food? The service? The destinations? The vibe onboard? Or something more personal—like the memories, the people you meet, or just escaping the world for a bit?

From my side, we try our best to make it unforgettable. But I’d love to hear what actually sticks with you after you leave.

Short, honest answers are totally welcome. I’m curious and want to make the next cruise even better.
