Mystery ships

2009. Mystery ships. There are three ships in this rather jumbled photo. A night out with me to the first person to name all three correctly. Two nights out with me to the runner-up.

On the far side of the Ola pier is the "Hamnavoe", this side of the Ola pier is the passenger ship "Expedition" (sister ship of the last Sunniva) and on the South pier is the "Quest" another small passenger ship.

Quite correct Tommy. What a pity you're unavailable; I was keen to know where I'd be taken and how much would be spent on me.

Hamnavoe, Expedition and Quest. I copied Tommy's comment but I'm available as long as you pick me up fae the hoose. I live in Rackwick in Morcourt just 60kms north o' Paris!

Boot's on the other foot Barbara: you have to pick ME up. And TWICE, since you're only a runner-up. Better start saving. C'est la vie and all that.

Why would you pass on the third one, Colin - the only one whose name is clearly legible in the shot?
