A slight change to the description,
"LCS 3 was built by Marinette Marine (to a Lockheed-Martin / Gibbs & Cox design) set sail........ |

Thank you Steve. I really appreciate your comment.
But be safe on that bridge. I wish you a good light (sun) and the best angle for your catch. As you already know, this brand new ship is really impressive and elegant to see, even when she is moored. And, i'm really glad that you've caught her on her move. Anyway, good luck my friend for her pass beneath Pont de Québec! Florian DSO. |

| That is a great picture Florian. I took pictures of it in Trois-Rivières and along the south shore of the St-Lawrence River. I am waiting for it to pass under the Quebec City bridge. |

| Hi Marc. I'm glad you caught this ship this morning on her go to Quebec Harbour. Congratulations my friend. I'm sure that just one photo of this ship is worth a lot for any shipspotter like us. What a beauty! Thanks also for your comment. Now, I should figure to modify my background data for this boat in accordance. Best regards, Florian DSO. |

| I photographed her this morning in dreary light as she was proceeding downbound on the St.Lawrence River off my hometown of Verchères to her destination of Galveston TX where she will be commissioned. Presently she is still a PCU which stands for precommissioning unit in US Navy parlance. |

Hi Göran.
You are absolutely right. As matter of fact, I have registered this picture as a frigate but I guess that one of the screeners prefer using the "Auxillary" designation. Anyway, as long as we can appreciate the ship or this first photo of mines (I should say), it's OK for me. Thanks for looking and thanks for the comment. Florian DSO. |

Hi Florian. Nice photo and splendid background data. However she should be considered a combat vessel and not an auxillary, probably patrol vessel or corvette/small frigate.
Regards/Göran |

| Thanks to my friend Jean-Pierre Brossard for giving me the hint; otherwise, I couldn't have caught these so precious photos! Florian DSO. |
