Popped down to Stokes Bay during my lunch break to catch some photos of the George HW Bush which arrived this morning.

Very nice and clear views there Willy.  I hope you will have good weather on Saturday.  It would be nice, if you have the opportunity, to get shots of all those sticky-out bits and other areas that differentiate her from the previous, Nimitz class.  Perhaps one day someone will bring out a Ronald Reagan/George HW Bush kit in 1:350 scale and your photo's could be used for reference.

 

Thanks for posting these.

Just saw  this on the local news, typical, was down there Tuesday!

 May have to visit on Monday  tho,  as they said she ( lol 'she' George W in drag springs to mind :tmi: ) was in Stoke Bay until Tuesday.

Willy, do you know where the boat trips are going from? is it Gosport or Pompey side?

The Gosport Ferry are running trips from the Gosport side, I think they are all sold out, but I have heard they are running boat trips from Gunwharf Keys

on a first come first served basis.
