Thanks, Najinsky, that's great background information. It's eye catching without knowing the history but even more enjoyable knowing. -Michael

Thanks for the comment Michael. This is one of about 10 benches overlooking an old harbour in the Island of Jersey. They are tributes to various ship-builders on the island whose ships saw active service. Zephyr is the ship, a 44 Ton cutter built at Allix's shipyard in 1850. Havre Des Pas is the place on the Island where the shipyard is located. Each bench is dedicated to a different ship. -Najinsky

This bench completely fascinates me. Najinsky, do you know the story of this bench? Nice shot, by the way. -Michael
