Interesting picture! Hadn't seen her in ages, and I think I know why now. She looks like she's been laid up for a long time already :-(

Brgds.

Good day Ralph

I am pretty sure she is laid up,, saw her there for a while,, I saw the vessel often
in the 90,s in the Caribbean Isles. Guess she will go soon to breakers or rot away.
It,s a shame :-(

Mercy Ships last used her in 2005 as a floating base for disaster response after Hurricane Katrina hit Alabama. She was decomissioned from their fleet after that, and sold in 2006, I believe. Good to see her again, I spent three months as a deckhand on her in 2000. Thanks for posting the photo!
