A ship rearing back on its hind legs, so it can jump over the line of surf, get up on the beach and lay eggs and rear its young.

One hardly ever gets a photo of this, however. Ships generally only do this in the dark of the moon on deserted beaches.




Cap Mandrake -> RE: Name This...(130) (7/19/2004 9:42:26 PM)

Cocos nucifera L. The "L" was one of the late war variants with improved trunk length, improved glacis thickness and slope, a superior cluster geometry and improved husk armour. These were often employed in the beach defence role. Though obsolescent now, many remain in Vanuatu and the Soloman Islands defence organizations.

This shot was also used as background in SSI's Greatest Naval Battles 2 Which focused on the Solomons and was a GREAT game, think great grandfather to UV.

BTW is the ship still there or has it been scraped?

(Before he got a job with Exxon, he worked for the Japanese Fleet)
