Here's Part II of my 'seafarer's photography' thread. This summer I'm working on the Algomarine, which is a traditional Great Lakes vessel in that the pilothouse is up front at the bow and there is also an afterhouse where the Engineers/MA's/Galley dept are quartered. This vessel also has the unloading gear aft, which makes for a very silent forward house. For the first time in a couple of years, I'm able to sleep without ear plugs, which is very nice.
