    Default Ugliest Ship Contest

    To help promote our friends at the Ugly Ship blog we are starting this contest for the ugliest ship.

    Prizes: Top 5 contest winners will get a free gCaptain t-Shirt, top prize will be a t-shirt and a Starbucks gift card.

    End date... tbd.

    Winners: We will choose our favorite and winners will be chosen by poll.

    To get started visit Ugly Ship (or upload own ugly ship photo) and find the most rusted, off colored, weirdest designed vessel on the high seas then embedd it on this thread.

    Note: To qualify photos must be embedded with vessel information linked to original source. For example:

    I hope we can enter more than once because THIS is the Ugliest Ship EVER!



    Canadian National Railroads ferry m/s ABEGWEIT (1982-1999)

    Obviously retired and scrapped way early out of shame, embarrassment and that they could not find a crew willing to serve on such a pig...

    What was the Naval Architect who designed this abomination thinking! The shipyard workers probably lost their eyesight building her!
