Robhvw, you are correct. Hopefully you can revive the game with the next ship. Good luck.

Looks like interest has waned. Another hint or two to move things along.... She was a Danish vessel minding her own business who got pinched between the two opposing forces at the onset of the Battle of Jutland.
-
Maybe time for a little hint? Being in the wrong place at the wrong time, she was investigated by the vanguards of two opposing forces. The shots fired during the confrontation were the first fired of the subsequent battle.

No, not the Regele, this one hailed from Scandinavia.

Here's the next one, sorry it took so long.

Sorry this is taking so long. I'll post a new one tomorrow.

HMS Bellerophon perhaps?

Love the rooftop outhouse. Great way to keep unwanted solicitations at a minimum!

Beef Wellington, you have it right, and as St George says, she was the last IJN destroyer torpedoed by a U.S. Submarine during WWII. Good job guys. Beef Wellington you're next.

Not the Kamikaze. Last in another way.

Hey BW, you have the right class, but it"s not the Numakaze. Our ship was not "last" in that sense.
-
Sorry it took so long... here is a ship that I'm sure someone will guess quickly. She had the dubious distinction of being the last. Sorry for the poor photo quality but it was the only photo I found of her. BTW is that a fifty-post lolipop I got under my avatar?

That was a good one, Old Salt. Sounds like you sailed on her. Dramamine Express! Now that's funny. I'll find something to post this evening.

Old Salt, I believe this is the M/V Tustumena of the Alaska Marine Highway System. She was built in 1963 in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. She serves South-Central Alaska and the Aleutian chain of islands. Jan is correct, because of the waters in which she serves, she is a certified ocean-going vessel. The structure on her stern is a car elevator used in those communities where there is no direct ramp to the car deck. Because of her age the State of Alaska will begin the process of replacement in 2015.

Thanks for the link to that great site, Menno. I haven't yet found another name for the cut out, I have only found it described as a rudder cut out, or a propeller cut out. There's probably a term for it somewhere, but I haven't seen it yet, maybe someone on this site has the knowledge.
