As we found out early in the life of the boat, sometimes it's the camera you had, not the one you wish you had! In this case, Erik Pietras captured life on the boat between 1990 and 1994. Classic images of shipmates at work and at play in the early nineties on that mult-million dollar pleasure liner we knew as the USS William H. Bates!
