I was at the V&A Waterfont this weekend and we took a boat trip around the harbour, which is something I have not done in ages. I must have picked the perfect day as there were tons of awesome boats docked. The Volvo around the world yacht race had a pit stop there and we were inches away from some impressive vessels. Then we came across the “Chamarel”, the picture does not do it any justice, I can only imagine amount of work that goes into laying our much needed undersea cables. I am not sure how these things work exactly, this is the front end of the ship, at the back there is another large (smaller than this one) winch and one on the left hand side (Port Side) which is probably to lift damaged cable up for repairs.
