I like the photo, good detail, must be cold on the outside wheelhouse on top. some other whaling pics they have only an open wheelhouse, that would have been terrible in winter.

Of all the 93 pictures of whalers that we have on the site there are very few of this type of Russian vessel and none that show the detail of the walkway to the bow as this one does.These vessels are no more and in my opinion this picture should be kept as part of record of the type on the site.
Hence my decision to keep it.
