 Catherine Desgagnes begins to turn around
|
 Close-up of the ship turning in the harbor
|
 ... further around
|
 ... and further
|
 ... nearly halfway around the wind stops them
|
 From a different angle this is about as far as they got
|
 American flag and Desgagnes house flag fly from the mast
|
 The ship starts to swing back toward the Donner
|
 ... back at my original viewing point the ship comes in
|
 A line is passed between the two vessels
|
 The line is hauled aboard the Donner
|
 A heavier line is next
|
 The heavier line is hauled aboard the Donner
|
 The line is rove up taught
|
 The ship is winched in closer to the Donner
|
 Three lines now connect the two vessels
|
 ... continuing to winch the ship in toward the Donner
|
 ... all tied up for the night
|
