Your fan club here says the Unicorn is certainly my kind of ship.
bowsprite– you’ve captured the stolt colors perfectly. maybe the top vessel could be renamed “stolt colorability” and here’s a note on unicorn from one of my readers: “One of Stolt’s shipping “partners” [entrant in the chemical shipping pool Stolt manages for itself and other parcel tanker operators such as NYK] is Unicorn Shipping of South Africa [parent is Grindrod]. I believe Unicorn owns the BASUTO and Stolt manages it. ” i hope you drench the unicorn boat in . .. i guess . . . fall colors.
