US Navy Mark V.1 Special Operations Craft "Mako"

U.S. Navy:

The 83 foot Mark V.1 Special Operations Craft; christened Mako was constructed of carbon fiber and built in Maine.

Last week I got lucky during my afternoon walk and photo shoot to witness the Mako first hand as the craft made it's way into Sandy Bay and Rockport Harbor. Most impressive craft! I managed to get several great images to share with everyone. The full story can be read @; US Navy Mako Launched The Mako was on her way down the coast to a Naval Base in Virginia to continue sea trials.

The Mako was cruising at about 50 mph when she began making a hard right turn. I shot several images of the turn and stitched them together for this action composite.
