Master James commanding his "Blue Fish Special"
This sculpture was part of a fleet of 8 vessels created during the time of Covid. These characters have waiting years to travel which is their passion. They are finally off to a new adventure, traveling together, to points of interest and following their dreams.
Master James speeds along on his “Blue Fish Special” and herds the back of the fleet, by scouting and looking out for unexpected encounters. His exceptional skills in communicating in different languages is a much needed asset for traveling.
