AMS60 BERNISSE
This is not about cruiseships, but about a former coastal minesweeper of the AMS60 class. Last weekend, the third Portfestival was held in IJmuiden, The Netherlands, and AMS60 ms BERNISSE was invited to attend. Being the webmaster of the Foundation's website, I travelled to Vlaardingen on Friday 24 August, where I boarded the ship. We had a very smooth sailing to IJmuiden and on Saturday and Sunday we got around 450 paying visitors (children under 16 accompanied by an adult had free access). On Monday we sailed back to Rotterdam where I was dropped off in Vlaardingen. I made quite some photos and a selection can be seen on the website http://www.msbernisse.nl

Thanks Willem, great photographs :) Did you notice the former HMS Elfin. It used to be a torpedo recovery ship of Her Majesty's Royal Navy.
