Thank you 😃

‘Tlatoani’ means emperor in Aztec. The ship was named after the Aztec Emperor, Cuauhtémoc. It’s also known as “El Caballero del Mar” or “The Gentleman of the Seas”. Viva México 🇲🇽 🫡

Thanks for the information 👍

So good to see on all levels, not least, all the very smart traditional dress of the sailors too. Another great video of one of the world's most wonderful waterways and the huge diversity of activities!

Thanks for watching and for the kind comment 👍Yes - the Thames does seem to offer a wide variety of vessels!

amazing ship 🎉🎉🎉

[@ThamesShips]

Thanks - we don't get large sailing ships like that very often.

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Thank you for sharing.. Looking very nice.

[@ThamesShips]

Thanks for watching 👍Yes - she it was nice to see. I think that is the largest flag I have ever seen on a ship!

[@LMays-cu2hp]

​@@ThamesShips You are welcome. I take it was to show the Mexican Colors and Symbol. Just something for a nice culture exchange in a ceremony celebration. So, about the largest flag on a ship. I see similar, maybe half that size of the Mexican flag here in Chicago, Illinois, USA.

Nice sailing ship!

[@ThamesShips]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@johnjg57]

Good Lord! That's a flag and a half on the back of that thing!🙂

[@ThamesShips]

Yes - that's what I thought as well. Never seen anything like it!

[@valilucifer2379]

Well let's just say that we Mexicans have and see pride about our flag, by the way next year I'll be there like 4 to 5 months UK is a country that I see as a awesome place and I want to see what I can, also i want to pay a visit to the beautiful Belfast

[@UKShipspottingRailFreightTV]

Blimey that flag is big.Saw on pla she was going to london and was hoping you had filmed her 😀👍

[@ThamesShips]

Yes - I think that is the largest one I have seen on a ship. I was hoping to film her arrive at West India Dock but there was a heavy police presence around the O2 in London and they were stopping people from accessing the Thames Path in the area that I wanted to go to. Not sure why...

[@UKShipspottingRailFreightTV]

@@ThamesShips well that's a shame ☹️

@@stevecollins6422 Thanks for the info. I did not know that.

[@fw4286]

Very nice , is she open to the public at the moment?

[@ThamesShips]

I have seen in a couple of places on social media that she is open to the public on Thursday from 10:00 to 20:00 but have not seen any official confirmation.
