The Mexican Navy training ship Cuauhtémoc arrived in Table Bay Harbour on Saturday morning, 15 April. She was designed to train officers and cadets of the Mexican Navy.

I braved the strong winds and sea spray to have some fun with the camera.

Yesterday I was given a guided tour of the interior, met a lot of the senior officers, etc. Man, the interior for the senior officers is something to behold! The other rating just has a modern appearance.

Herewith a few pics:

More plaques, those on the right are from this trip and are removed prior to the next voyage:

There are also seperate sections for plaques from other Sailing Ships, other training ships and crew honours.

Were to, Capt'n?
