Seaboat away! Jan 1945
« on: Tuesday 16 December 14 18:52 GMT (UK) »
Hiya gang, here's another good one from my dad's pics taken January 1945 somewhere in the north Atlantic. I cringe when I think what the water temperature must have been.

Could someone please give it a tidy, and of course if you'd like to give colouring it a go, have at it :)

Cheers,
China

Okay, finally got to finish this after my system freezing and losing the first attempt.
