Just the Photo - Brentana from the Back

photo by Nereo Zane

 

This was taken at the 2012 Regata Storica.

As is often the case with Nereo Zane, he was in just the right place,

at just the right time to capture this moment of the "big boat from Brenta" as she was about to pass under the Rialto bridge.

 

We've seen this impressive boat here before, but she is usually seen from the side or the front.  The Brentana even looks cool as she leaves you behind, and I understand that during Vogalonga, it happens a lot

(read Tyson's "Close Encounter" with a Big-Eyed-Boat).
