What ship is this?

I permit myself a little hijack for another cammo ship:

This is a harder one. Some patrol craft. Mackay camo means around WWI and most certainly American.

Not sure why you suppose it to be American. The two side-by-side guns forward look like a European WWI design, and the parkas suggest a country that knows how to dress for the cold. I think a Norwegian coast defence patrol vessel.

Did they get that camo pattern from the back of a deck of playing cards?

Hint: The photo dates back to WWI but she saw service in WWII as well.

Sometimes I get parts of Europe

The foremast is in front of the bridge. It is a yacht, the USS Isabel.

It is indeed!

I cannot explain why, but the Isabel is one of my favorite ships in WITPAE. I've only lost her once.

Jeff - I took 5 years of Latin and cannot for the life of me figure out what your tag line says......

"Sometimes I have the urge to conquer large parts of Europe".

Just wondering how he expects to do this from down under - would be longest-ranged amphibious assault in history.

This is the translation I used, Back in the day it would have been a Giant Pub Crawl, now a circuit of historical sites of others who conquered, or tried to conquer Europe.
