Hi CC, just finished a trip on an anchor handling and supply vessel (similar to Fairmount Sherpa), a very enjoyable trip it was too.

better than my last one.
ruff weather and on a tall ship which doesnt ride the weather well. almost all of the crew were sick (let alone the passengers)  and i threw up on the captain 
And guess who had to scrub the lunch off the side
so yeah i dont know to carry on with a carrier in sea

My last trip was on the Spirit of France (Finally!)

It was... not too rough, just a little movement coming over(but that was on the Burgundy)

You want I feel like your on water without it being ruff if you get me

[The Ferry Man]

Yeah

Not too calm, but not rough 

just enough of a bump to let you know you are floating

[The Ferry King]

Yeah

Not too calm, but not rough 

just enough of a bump to let you know you are floating

How was it? did the ship meet your expectations?

Oh i was asking how is ukiservity!


I went on SOB= lots of rust everywhere, i hope they cleaned it by now

[NathanC]

What happened to this place? There used to be a post in this topic every 5 seconds

[Captain Cadet]

Yeah

Not too calm, but not rough 

just enough of a bump to let you know you are floating

I was on a sea cat once and i payed expessualy for that experience. could have flown over but the cat felt like it was flying not sailing

I thought it was pretty nice, still haven;t quite fixed the vibrational issues though...

Not if they are tied down

[Captain Cadet]

Not if they are tied down

But they should easily float a boat under the water

[The Ferry Man]

hmm... possibly...

if they are all watertight...

Any way what are those ships for?

They're hulls for self propelled barges. These "barges" are common on the large inland rivers in Europe... especially in the Netherlands.
