I took these pictures while the cruise ship we were on was departing Funchal in the Madeiras. No idea what ship it was, but it was clearly a replica of some significance. An amazing sight on the open Atlantic.

      It was a fair distance away from us. Zoomed as tight as I could with an el cheapo pocket camera.

    Great shots for a pocket camera. I love boats like this one.

      They are great. Wish I could figure out what ship it is. Portuguese flag. Spanish markings.

    Portugese with Spanish markings is probably a Columbus ship, I think.

      He was an Italian. Sailing for Spain. So confusing.
