Is the lettering backwards so you can read it in the rearview mirror?

(like AMBULANCE)

I think the letters are windows, and you view from the inside.

Right… I had to look closer to see that it’s actually an inflatable or some kind of installation.

Looks like a German sculpture. KANN, ICH WILL, ICH MUSS

Pretty much. It’s a quote, Kant’s “Ich kann, weil ich will, was ich muss.” which you can read when you stand inside the sail.

You know, the green one in that video might even be the same ship.
I took the picture at the Baltic sea, near Warnemünde. There are a lot of ferries and freighters shuttling back and forth from there to the Scandinavian parts of the Baltic sea.

They do look very similar! except the ship in the video doesn’t have the barf port. Perhaps they haven’t bothered cleaning it since the video was shot.
