i don't even want to imagine where you guys might take this thread but just to start with a serious question. can anyone identify this ship spotted off fort lauderdale beach today? sorry that i don't have better pic, only had camera phone with me.
basically it first, from almost head-on, it looked like some sort of regular ol' cargo ship but for three pylons sticking up high into the air. i was thinking maybe some kind of deepwater dredging operation. but then when i got around to the side of it, the ship has separated into three sections. i'm sure it was still just one boat. maybe two of five sections lowered into the water or something? i don't know. maybe a yacht carrier? i've never seen a ship configured like this before. it was very far away out in the anchoring field where ships wait their turn to the port.
ps. that's not an illusion and the seas were quite calm today. that ship shows in three distinct sections.
here, i tried blowing it up without distorting it...
