Ahoy Marc,
Yes, it was a nice trip, and a ship spotters heaven.
On the spot where I saw the 'Golden Iris' there is another one every second day. I just heard about that on my final day there.
One time it's a Ferry, then it's a Cruise Boat etc etc.
Most surpringly was the Turkish Coast Guard vessel which I didn't even see through the viewfinder and not on that tiny screen. As I told in the opening of this topic, I saw that one on my computer screen when I enhanced the picture. Quite a surprise.
