From the FotoFlite files: Waddenzee.
 
We go back to 1996 for these two. The coaster Waddenzee caught through the lens on March 29th, with an unusual deck cargo of lifeboats.
 
The lifeboats were on their way to Italy, to be installed on the cruise ship Carnival Destiny, which was nearing completion at the time. Now named Carnival Sunshine, the vessel mostly cruises the Caribbean these days, but when completed, was the first cruise vessel to exceed 100,000 gross tonnes.
 
I think you will agree, things have moved on since then!
 
Just two shots from a fascinating library of images. Fancy a copy of these?
