Hurtigruten's Fram making her second visit to Helsinki during 2011 on 13 May 2011. She is one of the few cruise ships large enough to use the Pakkahuoneenlaituri quay, making for interesting views. Click on the individual images to view larger size.

| It was a neat sight, watching the ship with azipods and two bow thrusters pull away sideways from the quay against a strong wind. |
 |
| To top off the performance, the Fram made a superb over 180 degrees turn, offering very neat photo opportunities. |
 |
| Since I last saw the ship in 2009 Hurtigruten have painted the company name on the side of the ships. Looks quite neat, actually. |
 |
| Still more to turn, though the ship looks like she's about to head out through Särkänsalmi. I think she actually has a shallow enough draught to use the särkänsalmi shipping lane, but never the less she left through the normal Kustaanmiekka route. |
