Modular Block Shipbuilding
At Seaspan Shipyards in North Vancouver. Building in progress for one of the Navy's new replenishment ships; this one will be the future HMCS PRESERVER. These ships are being built in modular blocks, and don't have a traditional keel that runs the length of the ship. I thought this photo would be of interest to students of Ship Construction; lots to look at with the framing and brackets.
