Cable Ship "René Descartes" in Victoria
Managed to catch her on a nice day in Victoria. At Ogden Point Terminal. A good view of her after working decks. Built for Orange Marine in 2002, she was designed to lay and repair submarine fibre optic systems. She can stay at sea for two months and is able to lay up to 8,000 km of cable without interruption. She really is a magnificent vessel.
