I remember my father in 2005 worked as donkerman on board a small tanker MARINA (IMO 7018616) which was carrying edible oil across the North & Baltic seas. It was his first time visiting MANY European ports during just a couple of months, so a lot of ships he saw by own eyes were "out of this world" - the prize winner of course was the mighty SAIPEM 7000 in Rotterdam (which I knew from the book & tv documentaries), however he also mentioned a some ferry called TT DOLPHIN - a HUGE white catamaran that passed them by on high speed. At that time I didn't know anything about Austal & Incat vessels (well, if only a some tv documentary about salvaging the https://www.shipspotting.com/photos/158583 which I thought was a big yacht), so I asked my father to draw a pic of how that TT DOLPHIN looked like... the "TT Line Clipper" was also on it. This ship was among the first ones I searched for, once I got internet & went online for the first time in autumn of 2007.

Hi Denis,
very interesting personal story about it. Yes, it was in the 90s when a lot of ferry line shipping companies put fast ships into operation. It was madness. Bringing travellers to their destination faster and faster was modern. The TT Delphin was the fastest connection between Germany and southern Sweden. With 36 knots, the travel time was only about 3 hours. Later inconceivable and too expensive.
