Other Means Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 My brother in law has an obse...interest in ships. Ugly ships in particular. So he made a website: http://www.uglyships.com/ Enjoy, if that's the word. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtMuhammed Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I'm surprised they let that liner sail. Just looking at it would cause other ships to become ill. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhorse Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Cool site OM! I'd however argue that the "Salvador Dali" is a pure work of art and not an "Ugly Ship". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonS Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Some of the paint jobs *are* a bit garish, but at least they're trying to do something interesting. I give them a pass on that basis alone. And yeah, I thought the Dali is kinda cute 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Affentitten Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Yes they're not half as ugly as some of the "party boats" you see on Sydney Harbour. Especailly this time of year when they're loaded up with call centre drones having their office Christmas party. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Maybe they're ugly so that pirates wouldn't be interested? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Maybe they're ugly so that pirates wouldn't be interested? Your faith in human rationality is truly touching. I am deeply moved. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Other Means Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 I think a lot of them are one step away from dazzle camo. Ugly here is used affectionately, like one might to Sergei, except with affection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kettler Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Other Means, Definitely different and educational, too! Thanks! That yacht looks like the designer crossed Baushaus and Stealth--badly. Regards, John Kettler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Emrys Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 That yacht looks like the designer crossed Baushaus and Stealth--badly. Ehhhhhh... I wouldn't want to buy it, but I wouldn't mind cruising around in it as a guest. Maybe with a boat like that you'd be allowed to throw your empties into the harbor. Kinda completes the image, don't you think? Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
