Moshe Goldstein had almost fully recovered from his illness and was already out and about. Currently, he was on the deck of the ship, looking at the mesmerizing scenery of hundreds of large naval vessels entering and leaving the port.
Moshe could see a lot of European vessels in the port, recognizing almost all of the flags. However, what caught him by surprise were the large Bharatiya vessels that dwarfed almost all the European ships. Just by sight alone, Moshe could tell that these ships were definitely in the displacement range of 1,500 tonnes.
