Waterborne vessels of all kinds, except for naval ships and auxiliaries, for which there is a separate album.
Newhaven, our local port, has its own album as do lifeboats, but vessels from either of those categories may also appear here.

Britain's only commercial regular passenger hovercraft service runs from Southsea, neighbour of Portsmouth, over to Ryde on the Isle of Wight, just off the south coast of England. There are several parts of the Clarence Pier visible over the top of the craft, but one can see its fairly smooth lines in the adjacent photo of it under way across the Solent.
Seven Sisters, named after a series of cliffs on the Sussex coast, manoeuvring stern-first out of Newhaven Harbour. Generally she and her sister ship, Cote d'Albatre, load through the bow here and the stern in Dieppe.
A one-off from the days when I had a camera with a larger format than 35mm. One for which film went out of production in the 1970s. I think it only took about 12 shots per roll.
This ship and M.V. Seven Sisters share duties on this four-hour crossing. One ship works the route at a time, with up to two sailings a day in each direction. I don't know what other routes they work on, when they are not on this route.
