Is it just me, or am I somehow not seeing the crew? Are they using those new military "stealh" outfits?

"Is it just me, or am I somehow not seeing the crew?"

Maybe that explains the splash aft of the port hull???

They're just trapping flat. Christophe Launay ( www.sealaunay.com ) shoots alot of his stuff with a fisheye lense. Great photographer. He and Walter Cooper are my favorites.

It's either that or the starboard trap lines are attached to the hull forward of the main beam
