Same wreck, different times. In the top picture the Boat's been stabilized with poles and the truck has been backed out some.

Stabilized with poles, but I don't believe the truck has been moved.

Me either. That truck is in the same spot. You can tell from the relationship between the roof of the truck and the stern of the boat.

It's a combination of a telephoto being used to take the bottom picture which compresses everything, and the angle it was shot at.

Wow. More pics here.

And this is what it is carrying.

I wonder what it cost to bring the Cole home?

Ah, found it. $4.5 million for the ride home and $250 million to repair.

This Ferry started in San Francisco, had an accident killing five, then a fire at the dock. Next it was rebuilt for Seattle and served up into I think the 70s. First one arc welded together, copper wheel house to not screw up the compass, and other neat stuff.

I've kayaked right up to the hull of the Kalakala, touched it just to say I had. Who knew today was that day.

Soon after that she was towed away from Lake Union near Ivar's on the lake. It had a little plastic tip jar for donations hanging on a line from the bow.

I saw this Ferryboat in Kodiak when I was there in the '70s.

I'll get on a fairy, before I get on a ferry.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

The people poking up out of the port hole things, like little planters, make me LOL.
