Lovely photo... as she was a sister of the old St Magnus that ran to the Northern Isles it caught my eye. The Magnus had a tendency to lurch and wallow so they built a large water tank just between her funnels, it did the trick as after that she was as steady as a rock. They were nice looking ro-ro's indeed, thanks for posting!
Cheers
