Manly ferry SS Balgowlah heads for Manly with enclosed promenade deck of varnished teak. The promenade decks were enclosed in the early 1930's on all the Manly ferries except for portions at either end, taking the lead from the new boats Dee Why and Curl Curl. Rose Bay in the distance. Built at Woolwich, Sydney in 1912. Balgowlah was slated for a refit similar to the Barrenjoey/North Head refit however that expense put an end to those plans and Balgowlah was withdrawn in 1951, stripped at Strides shipbreakers at Glebe Point by 1953. Her hull was scuttled at the "Ship's Graveyard" which is about 50km east of Sydney where water depth is between 270 and 390 metres. Like all ships at this location, her exact position is not known.
You will see the bow end at left with anchors. One of the few differences between Balgowlah and Barrenjoey was that Balgowlah had three unequally spaced portholes at the bow and three equally spaced portholes at the stern. Barrenjoey had the opposite. It's possible this may have been deliberate so that staff could tell them apart from a distance.

Well, since I found another shell for Jean-Louie, my El SS head was left character-less.
And my Lishe SS head, that used to be Yves, became Kuromi because cute.
Soooo... here I am, seeing if Yves fits in the El mold.
I think he doesn't x_x And the fact that he doesn't have a body to borrow doesn't help at all :P
Anyway, since I had the trouble of doing his face up, here's a pic :P
The underneath of the SS Great Britain was sealed by a layer of glass to help prevent rusting of the hull.

SS Great Britain is a museum ship and former passenger steamship, advanced for her time. She was the longest passenger ship in the world from 1845 to 1854. She was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel for the Great Western Steamship Company's transatlantic service between Bristol and New York. While other ships had been built of iron or equipped with a screw propeller, Great Britain was the first to combine these features in a large ocean-going ship. She was the first iron steamer to cross the Atlantic, which she did in 1845, in the time of 14 days.
When launched in 1843, Great Britain was by far the largest vessel afloat. However, her protracted construction and high cost had left her owners in a difficult financial position, and they were forced out of business in 1846 after the ship was stranded by a navigational error.
Sold for salvage and repaired, Great Britain carried thousands of immigrants to Australia until converted to sail in 1881. Three years later, she was retired to the Falkland Islands where she was used as a warehouse, quarantine ship and coal hulk until scuttled in 1937.
In 1970, following a cash donation by Sir Jack Hayward that paid for the vessel to be towed back to the UKGreat Britain was returned to the Bristol dry dock where she was built. Now listed as part of the National Historic Fleet, she is an award-winning visitor attraction and museum ship in Bristol Harbour, with 150,000–170,000 visitors annually.

Dicky Beach is a suburb of the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia, located within the Caloundra urban centre.
The area was named after the iron steamboat, the SS Dicky, which ran aground during heavy seas in 1893. It was refloated, but again, heavy seas turned the ship about and back onto the sand where it remains to this day. Dicky Beach remains the only recreational beach in the world to be named after a shipwreck.
The SS Moyie was built in 1898 for the Canadian Pacific Railway. It carried passengers and freight on Kootenay Lake in British Columbia for 59 years. Today it is the world's oldest intact passenger sternwheeler, and has been beautifully restored and open for tours in Kaslo, BC.

Death SS was formed in 1977 in Pesaro by Steve Sylvester (born Stefano Silvestri), a future member of the Ordo Templi Orientis,[1] and Paul Chain (Paolo Catena), who would later embrace an experimental form of doom metal with his solo project, Paul Chain Violet Theatre. The band combined elements of horror, occultism and heavy metal to become a pioneer in horror metal[2] and black metal;[3] the musical style is called “horror music” by the band.[4] Sylvester left the band in 1982 and Chain replaced him with Sanctis Ghoram (featured on the Evil Metal EP) before closing the project in 1984 to start his solo career. Sylvester reformed the band in 1988 (with him being the only original member). This new incarnation of the band recorded their first full-length album, ...in Death of Steve Sylvester. There would be many line-up changes in the years to come, with Sylvester once again being the only constant.
From the SS Great Britain website
The SS Great Britain was a world first when she was launched in Bristol in 1843. This uniquely successful ship design brought together new technologies in a way which transformed world travel.
Isambard Kingdom Brunel, the most daring of the great Victorian engineers, conceived the groundbreaking combination of a screw propeller, an iron hull, and a massive 1000-horsepower steam engine.
She was immediately successful - on her maiden voyage across the Atlantic the ss Great Britain easily broke the previous speed record.
Although effectively a prototype, she continued sailing until 1886, and travelled thirty-two times around the world and nearly one million miles at sea.
She was finally abandoned in the Falkland Islands, in 1937, after more than 40 years use as a floating warehouse.
In 1970 an ambitious salvage effort brought her home to Bristol, where today she is conserved in the dry dock where she was originally built.
Three masted top sail schooner SS Kathleen & May, which featured in the BBC series 'The Onedin Line', at St. Katherine's Dock, London, March 1981. She was built by Ferguson & Baird, Connah's Quay, Wales in 1900 for Coppack Bros as SS Lizzie May and engaged in coastal trade, later becoming a coal lugger for MJ Fleming, Ireland as the Kathleen and May. She is now preserved as the last British wooden-hulled three masted schooner. Scanned slide.

Three photos of the SS Badger this morning. The Badger is the largest car ferry to have ever sailed Lake Michigan. It has been in service since 1953 and currently makes two crossings per day between Ludington, MI and Manitowoc, WI.
In this photo, I caught it steaming out of Ludington on it's 8:00 pm crossing to Manitowoc.
