I agree, she is rather big.
Its especially noticeable whilst alongside in the Pilot Boat or Watertaxi, very imposing!

She is, although I do have trouble steering the container ships....was the same in SS '06 too ::)

Time to get my oars out I think, I may have more success that way ;)

Did anyone notice that she is just a edited version of the supertanker. But yes she is a nice ship.
Title: Re: Look at this MASSIVE ship!!!
Post by: andy_m on August 11, 2007, 10:27:08
Yeah I did notice she uses the same bridge superstructure as the Latitude, though it saves VSTEP designing a 'so similar its almost identical' bridge for each ship I suppose.

Yeah I agree for all her annoyances (handles like a drunk brick on ice!) she is a beautifully designed ship....never thought i'd say that about a VLCC!
I personnally like running up to the FX (foc'sle) and looking back at the bridge, really puts her size into perspective. ;D

Andy

She has no rada on top of the bridge and lifeboats like the container ship in Ship Sim 2006. But she is a nice ship with alot of detail on the deck. ;)

No radar? I hadn't noticed that!  ::)

And yes, she handles like a drunk brick on ice  ;D, but as you guys said, her size and shape really is a work of art!  :)

Thanks, Sky

I like those vessel’s.

Would be really great and fabulous to have the super maneuverable ships like the SUPER 25 TYPE, container vessel’s of about 210m long some with 3 Container crane, almost like the ones onboard of the AGILE SOLUTION but not at the side always at the mid section. This type of vessel’s had been projected to attend the global market especial at the AFRICAN/SOUTH AMERICAN/SOUTH ASIAN coasts where some of the harbors still does not have shore cranes facility. In Brazil this type of vessel have a great success at the port production due to the option to mix the port operation using the ship’s crane plus shore cranes it possible to make up to 5 gangs working at the 210m ships on the same time.

im confused.... didnt u guys noticed the vamass before????

Post by: dharl on December 28, 2007, 12:06:33
lattitude is the same side and they are both he NOT SHE!

In the English Language ships/boats are always refered to as a SHE not a He or even an it!!   This is even true if the vessel as a male name, she is always reffered to as a She.   In the Cyrillic based languages (such as Russian) they are reffered to as He's. 

Hope this helps..or does it confuse more  ???

PS enjoy ailing on both the Vermass and the Lattitude.   Yes she does handle like a drunk breeze block, but then so do full size VLCC's....  ;)

In the middle of making a STS Mission where you have tomanouver two VLCC's alongside  each other at slow speed... kEEPS YOU ON YOUR TOES!

Lol! :D Interesting discussion about he or she ;D

She's a massive ship
He's a massive ship

Well I guess I like the more female way since I look at ships as beauties
Many of them have some femaled ship name too, like Queen Mary 2.
Just my preferred way to look at ships. So I use she :D

A giant leaving New York, a Giant berthing at Marseille. Its really fantastic this vessel, what I had just noticed after many maneuvers within VEERMAS was her closer interaction with the interaction felt (Observed) with the MSC MONTEREY and also the MSC MARIA ELENA.

The trusts response are really closer to the real conditions and also the main trusters response. It's gives a feeling that on the simulator we can face a water interaction on the ship. Also the hydronamical behaviour of this vessel is fantastic, need some improviments but are really nice at all.

Cheers

Always better to keep old topics sleeping, and in my opinion of Vermaas and Titanic, they are "Almost" equally massive.
