And that's JUST how it first looked to Columbus.

Does it say 'Toronto Drydock' there on the bridge? Very curious about the dazzle camouflage!

That "dazzle camouflage" was introduced late in WWII as a more effective type for marine vessels.
It can be seen in old photos of warships of the time.
See USS California - attached
Here are a couple more views of that odd vessel (attached) - which certainly looks similar to a WWII landing craft.
I found these at:

Could this possibly be used as a floating drydock?
