Judy from Brooksville-Florida,, United States

Ohhhhhhhhh, I love tall ships (did you ever see her under sail?) and this is beautiful. She dwarfs the other boats in the scene on that gorgeous blue water. At first I thought I was in Greece! ;D
Well I know Mount Vesuvius isn't in Greece, so I'll concede to Italy. *smile*
This is beautiful!

Fliss from Melbourne Beach, United States

I need to be on that boat... looks like it would be a great adventure to go on this boat and help 'sail' it... as for the harbour of Capri... ahhhhhh... I was there in 2005 - loved it... I wanted to stay there and saw Vesuvius... never thought I would see that in my lifetime...

a regal ship to be sure! and so big! does this do charters and day touring? looks to be a well kept wonder of the harbour! and what a beautiful day for a sail! wonderful and expansive shot!
