Your post is pointless.

Atleast give us a photo or something.

Explain why you want it. Why is it different then other ships we have?

She'd be great for the game, has a good turn of speed and interesting handling assuming this is looked into in some detail to get it accurate . . .

As an ex-crew member I'd love too see her in the game, she is probably The UKs most famous ship after the QE2. She is now the last seagoing paddle steamer in the world  and has been successfully run by her preservation society for over 33 years, a fantastic achievement. She would definitely be a very popular ship sales wise in the UK for VStep as she has visited almost every port around our coastline carrying a total of over a million day trippers on coastal excursions. Plans etc are available for modelling. Plus as a paddle steamer she has unique handling characteristics, Although she is 61 years old she is faster than any modern ferry on the Clyde (with the exception of the cats), having a top speed of around 18.6 knots.

It would be great if Vstep could release a UK  heritage ships pack including Waverley, Shieldhall Balmoral and Kingswear Castle.

I'd love to see the Waverley in the game, as I would the SMIT Rotterdam.
