Yorktown


There was a big cruise ship laying along the east face of Straight Wharf today. Her name was Yorktown. I have never seen her here before. She is home ported in New York, New York.

Please be sure to visit my new Nantucket Deer Blog!

 I use a website called MarineTraffic.com to track ships going through the Sound in real time. Here I was tracking the Yorktown as she left Nantucket Harbor.
