I saw this ship moored in Kawaihae Harbor recently. It looked unlike anything I’d seen there before, so I stopped by to take a look. I found the ship’s name on the stern, between the twin hulls.
According to Wikipedia, the City of Bismark is a Spearhead-class expeditionary fast transport, operated by the United States Navy’s Military Sealift Command. It was built in 2017 and entered service at the end of that year. Ironically, when I first saw the ship, I thought it looked a bit beaten up and wondered if it was an older ship that someone had bought and was planning on fixing up!

Well, no need for fine lines when you’re transporting ‘something’ quickly.

That’s true, though the old clipper ships were very elegant.

Looks like some kind of retro merchant marine ship! Perhaps it’s a disguise! 😉

Yes, it’s a bit odd looking, but faster than it looks.
