Even though she's in NZ in this picture she was still flying the Saltire from the bow, as per MacBraynes practice.

Hi Robbie,

According to Faktaomfartyg: http://www.faktaomfartyg.se/suilven_1974.htm she has a capacity of 500 passengers.

Hi Pekka

Yes she has the passenger spaces, but I understand during her time in NZ the operator did not seek the necessary certificates and she operated as cargo only, with perhaps some "chairs" available for truck drivers, the crossing was only 3-4 hours so they wouldn't have needed cabin arrangements.

Cheers

Brent
