I think he means the Jersey that New Jersey is named after. As in Jersey, Channel Isles, sort of UK/ (it isn't actually part of the UK, it is owned by the Queen and has a different status).
But in any case, have a great time, Tractorman. Jersey is a fine place for a holiday. I sometimes take the boat over there and we always have a good time. :thumbs:

Hehe thanks everyone... Going to make a poll... ;D

Did he say JERSEY or NEW JERSEY? :doh:

Well here we simply refer to NEW Jersey (where I live) as Jersey...so in my mind he was not clear ::)

That one boat that us the pic the pic under the fast ferries stern what is that?
-
Picture number?
-
5th from the top just a plain boat what is it?
-
Oh its just a little sailing boat
-
Oh I thought it kinda looked like our harbor tug :thumbs:
-
Oh I thought you meant in the background, its a little tug
-
Oh wow your tugs over there are allot different from ours ;) I had no clue what that was other than that it looked like the tug in the game ours are so different :P
-
Tugs here do vary
-
The fifth picture clearly isn't a tug.
Where do you think the towing cable goes when the ship turns?
Nowhere, biceaus it will get stuck at those mooring points on the stern.
So it can't be a tug, unless if a retard designed it. ;)
-
Point taken, dunno what it is...
*looks it up*
Seems to be a small freight vessel
-
Ahh lol sam
Then its an odd looking freight vessel...ever heard of a barge :doh:
-
More like a small supply vessel
-
To an oil rig or something like a crew boat? Because we have crew boats :thumbs:
