the same thing is happening on Canada's ferries, we are discarding our older good looking ferries for offshore built wonderships, of very unshipshapelyness, but apparently efficient! mrdot.

But a ship is designed to do a job, not to look pretty. :)

Another ugly ferry, not the best way to start morning! :O

Thanks Robbie, my mistake when I checked David's title.

According to my records she is departing on the 3/6/2012. The tug Tiaki can be seen heading over to Seaview to assist with the departure of the tanker Orient Star.
Regards Robbie
