Summer solstice ships

It's the summer solstice today, although the weather wasn't as summery as most (i.e. me) would have liked; a bit rainy, pretty murky and with not enough sun and too much cloud.

There were plenty of Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) about, flying close to the beach. I sometimes wonder if my interests in nature and in ships aren't contradictory but, then, thinking about it, they're not really.
