    Don't wear glasses, but my flat screen is filthy.
    It doesn't say "Bounty" on the side ... does it ?

    Shotgun guess time ...

    Mary Celeste ?
    Flying Dutchman ?
    Spruce Goose? :D

    It's Schooner rigged so it isn't Bounty. I suspect it is something like Speck judging from the miniscule picture size......

    It is one of the Bounty replicas....I'd say the one at Battleship Cove.

    It is the Bounty replica used in the filming of Mutiny on the Bounty. The picture was taken while visiting our town on it's (the ship's) tour of the Great Lakes.


    Skunk's turn.

    Looks a lot like a carrier. :D The size of the picture makes it hard to tell for sure.:p

    USS Ranger. Had the pic been bigger, everyone could have seen the letters "RNGR" on the aft edge of the flight deck.

    Precisely the point. What gave it away, the six "stacks" sticking up through the deck (three a side) :D

    you're on

    A bomber pilot has to be able to recognize these things before bumping into them nose to nose. :eek:
    Being so close that you can read the "Dog-Tags" and then go through the personnel roster to identify the ship, negates the point. ;)
