Out of curiosity, I've just noticed on the upper deck just behind the lifeboat, what's the "MES 3" module?

Thanks for the link. I've sailed with Eckerö a lot of times but never knew what "MES 3" was. Good to know if an accident were to occur.

Guten Morgen Manfred,
Thanks for the link. That is one seriously insane piece of equipment. I've never seen anything quite like it but good for mass evacuations.

Loving the snow and how your camera meticulously picks the flakes out and the colours. Quite striking if I'm honest.

Thank you for the comment! I was disappointed at first because I thought the snow was going to destroy the photo, but it made quite a nice touch in hindsight.
