When time is money in this day and age, the Port of Oakland wastes no time in offloading cargo! The Ships of the Bay Cruise was eye-opening to how important container shipping is to trade and business! . . . #sanfrancisco #oakland #bayarea #thingstodo #sightseeing #cruise #portofoakland #maritime #fdr #history #usspotomac

Weighing in at 416 tons and measuring 165 feet long, the USS Potomac's docking process is a gentle one. Unlike modern ships that have bow thrusters that allow for a higher amount of precision and error forgiveness, we rely on the steady hands of our captains and the combined team effort of all crew to bring her into port. . . . #sanfrancisco #oakland #bayarea #thingstodo #travel #cruise #sightseeing #usspotomac #navy #oaklandloveit
