Ok, so this doesnt really have anything to do with the game, but for the next Ship Sim, I wana see a ferry like the one that I personally work on.

looks like a prop driven not a VSP....but it might have originally being a VSP since it was built in the 80s could even be a "Z Drive" system... i still rather call them azi pods...lol :D

I don't think having a ship in Ship simulator is a good idea when the ship is in Virtual Sailor. But VS do have Titanic,  but weird titanic models that are off on the details. I do know someone on hangsim who is making the most detailed Titanic for Virtual Sailor. He even added Titanic's grand staircase to it.
