So, you want to operate a cargo ship?

I don't think I posted this in the past.



This is an interesting facility ("Port Revel") in France that professionals use to hone their ship handling skills using models that mimic the real thing. I'm Fascinated.

HS friend of mine was a pilot out of Boston. His ships were a little bigger. Makes sense, though, don't imagine they let you take out a real one while you were a student driver.
