A very large US navy cat cruised down the North channel here in Bermuda the other day. Thought we were being invaded... www.jonah-art.com www.jonahs-whale.com

If she looked like this: http://www.msc.navy.mil/inventory/pics/loyal.jpg then she was one of the Navy's Military Sealift Command's ocean surveillance ships that collect underwater acoustical data in support of the Navy's submarine and anti-submarine warfare missions. Frankly, I thought they had been laid up but checking the MSC website, they have five of them in service. The Navy also used to operate similar looking submarine rescue vessels. Another possibility is that you saw one of the newer high speed transport vessels that the Navy has been leasing. I think, although do not hold me to this that the Army has leased one or more as well to evaluate them for a transportation mission. Did you take any pictures that you could post? take care all . . .
