For #SchiffsSamstag this is Hikawa Maru in Yokohama, 2018. Launched in 1929, she was originally an ocean liner carrying 331 passengers, becoming a hospital ship in World War II, then a cargo ship and back to cruising post-war. In 1961 she was permanently berthed and turned into a hotel, restaurant, and museum ship.

We're at a high elevation on a cruise ship looking across a short stretch of water to another berth on the outskirts of a city. It's a cloudy day and the water is flat. The landscape behind the berth consists of a line of trees partly covering some brick buildings behind with a road bridge passing behind that and over the water that continues to the left out of view. Docked at the berth is an old ocean liner. It's long with a black hull over a thin band of red just above the water level. The deck structures are white and only a few decks high with porthole windows on the lowest and larger windows above. A promenade deck space is on the uppermost of these. A flat bridge forms the front of the upper deck area and is set about a third of the way back from the straight prow.
