Its another of those firefighting planes isn't it? They picked you up enroute to a bush fire in Southampton. Real pain when that happens!

Well it looks like one of the Condor fast cat ferries or similar - plenty of room under them!!!

This vessel was designed for a specific purpose and now sits dormant on the River Itchen. It is a high speed craft and is more like a trimaran than a cat.

I'd be a little worried if the underneath of a Condor ferry was that close to the water!
