25 years? Seems impossible but almost to the day that this footage was shot, including the ISLANDBREEZE (ex TRANSVAAL CASTLE, SA VAAL, FESTIVALE) in her final season before becoming THE BIG RED BOAT III; COSTA ROMANTICA (before her good looks were spoiled in the 2011 refit to COSTA NEO ROMANTICA); VEENDAM (before her good looks were spoiled) and MERCURY. Shot from the south side of the entrance channel with my good buddy and avid ship photographer Andy Hernandez by my side.
