Naval Patrol Vessel Illustration - Historical Maritime Design #186878 (License: Personal Use)

This hand-drawn watercolor illustration depicts a mid-sized naval patrol vessel, painted in teal with white trim and marked prominently with hull number 12 on the bow. The ship features twin vertical smokestacks with rainbow bands, a raised bridge, a lattice radar mast, and a small aft crane-suggesting utility for coastal surveillance or light escort duties. Fine linework and subtle shading give it an authentic, archival sketch quality.
