Ships that pass...

When I'm not looking up to see what's in the sky, I'm usually looking out to sea, scanning the ocean waves for interesting ships and the odd whale. Despite having a very small gap through which to look (currently becoming even smaller), I still see an amazing amount of interesting things, not to mention some great waves on a stormy day.
From fishing boats plying to and fro from the nearby harbour of Hout Bay, to tiny crayfishing dinghies out to catch the last of the season, yachts bound for adventure on the high seas, medium sized cruise ships corkscrewing round the Cape of Good Hope, or behemoths of the ocean, they all pass by at varying distances - some so close as to be almost aground and others lost in the misty horizon.
