Name that boat!

[Rarefied]

Excuse the poor photo quality, this was taken from shore and the boats quite a distance from shore. There's an airforce base not far from where this was taken. Any thoughts?

You really shouldn't have taken that photo. Men in black suits will be watching your house.

 

[Skip Miller]

Looks like a ferry to me.

 

[SoonerAviator]

FSF-1?

That's what I'm going with. Part of the class of Littoral Combat Ships. Only reason I'm familiar with the class is due to one of the LCS models being the USS Tulsa which the made a big deal about locally.

 

[EdFred]

It's not a boat...

It's just mostly submerged.

Still one of the best backfires of a publicity stunt, lol. I bet they won't use a public poll to determine the ship names in the future.

What was funny is after they made the decision to name it the sir David Attenborough there was a petition that went around requesting that sir David Attenborough change his name to boaty mcboatface in the interest of democracy and humor.
