Comment I think its tilted cw. And I dont think its a police boat. --ArildV (talk) 12:03, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

From this view you can not see any writing, but it is the police. Please have a look at the blue top light.--CHK46 (talk) 23:00, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, its off-topic but its not a Swedish police boat. Swedish police use three types of boats in Stockholm; 3 CB 90 H/CB 90 E, 2 of this type, and three RIB (source). All painted in blue and white, and built for high speed (over forty knots).

The boat has as far as I understand basic navigation light: green light on the starboard side, red light on the port side, and a white (not blue) light placed at least 1 metre (according to Swedish rules) above the side-lights.--ArildV (talk) 00:32, 14 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the information. I have changed the picture information accordingly.--CHK46 (talk) 08:42, 14 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

- It's sharp, though. There's a guy in a hoody and sunglasses behind the wheel... This guy may actually be running from the police. I concur, it does not look like a policeboat to me. Unless it's undercover, of course. Kleuske (talk) 15:58, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Good quality but nothing special for me, lacks dynamic for a fast moving object. --Kreuz schnabel 18:05, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Technically OK I suppose, but rather boring composition, sorry. Jules Grandgagnage (talk) 18:56, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
