HMCS Calgary


Pouring on the coals, the frigate HMCS Calgary passes Madsu’s port side, as it heads out of Howe Sound heading towards the Straight of Georgia.

Madsu is 22 feet on the water. HMCS Calgary is 440 feet! (134 meters)

Earlier in the day I’d managed to get Madsu up to 6.5 knots working to windward. HMCS Calgary’s top speed is over 29 knots.
