The seas are rough today. We're underway in the North Atlantic during the winter. This is in the trough of a 60 foot swell looking up at the crest. The bull nose just popped up after taking dip. It was rough for three days before the storm eased. At times the main deck had three to four foot waves rolling down it. This particular swell the helmsman took slightly off the port bow. This is the view from the bridge thru the sea spray. This was an epic storm and I wouldn't have missed it. Another photo from the shoebox. Shot with Canon TX 35mm film thru sea spray covered glass from the bridge. #USN #underway #NorthAtlantic #AtSea #trough #crest #boot #ship #navy #Schiff #navire #asea #epic #SeaSpray #Ozean #océan #hav

Rigging is divided into two classes, standing, which supports the mast (and bowsprit), and running, which controls the orientation of the sails and their degree of reefing. Configurations differ for each type of rigging, between fore-and-aft rigged vessels and square-rigged vessels.

For those who wonder about the traffic cone - it is there because we like to bring back marine litter that we find on our trips.
Day 27, Pacific Ocean, Crossing the Equator.
Also the first day of February, Sunrise at the equator is always close to 06:00, with sunset being close to 18:00. It is as close to a 12 hour daylight and 12 hour nigh time as you get, with small differences due to the tilt of the spin of our globe compared to the orbit plane around the sun.
