The ex-Russian carrier Varyag is all spiffed up , with no place to go.
I find the tow line attached to the stern particularly interesting. And as the article points out she is making very little wake. When she can actually get underway and cross the 12 mile limit, then maybe we can be concerned. If the world was properly ordered-a flight of USN aircraft would be flying across her bow as soon as she entered international waters-but I don’t think we do WASEX’s any more.
Ubnderway, low vis and probably embarking/dis-embarking the pilot – there won’t be much wake.
