The condor ferry added to shipsim would be nice. (of the Stena Discovery

)

Shipaddict · « **Reply #2 on:** July 17, 2007, 19:40:21 »

Yes. Condor is a nice vessel. It would be good in shipsim.

Sam · « **Reply #3 on:** July 18, 2007, 08:49:46 »

Yes, I really would like that ship.
I just love those wave peircing catamarans!

She would go great in the game. So I think she should.

"Condor" is the name of the company... http://www.ferry-site.dk/ferrycompany.php?Rid=15&lang=en

This vessel is an Incat vessel. http://www.incat.com.au/

These are really great boats. It would go really go well in the game. If the Channel Islands were included it would be quite challenging approaching Guernsey!

Jack Haworth · « **Reply #7 on:** August 16, 2007, 10:42:50 »

I compleatly agree channel islands and condor ferries!

Bottman · « **Reply #8 on:** August 16, 2007, 11:48:13 »

And the whole area of Portmouth, of course..

lx585x · « **Reply #9 on:** August 16, 2007, 13:46:18 »

that ship would be the amongst the best ones in ss08 if added

Fox Luna · « **Reply #10 on:** August 16, 2007, 13:47:11 »

Indeed
I hope we will have this in the game

Nathanael · « **Reply #11 on:** August 18, 2007, 15:23:23 »

WOW!

That is such a cool boat. Should definitely be added to the game!!!!

Captain Spencer · « **Reply #12 on:** August 18, 2007, 16:02:10 »

I reckon a boat like that would be great to put in the game. We don't have any catamarans in the game yet

au contraire: Red Jet 4 is a catamaran.

But I agree, it would be good to have.

Oooops! It's been a long day

If anyone is intrested here are the plans for that ship

Fantastic vessel, done several "ahem" booze cruises on these ships! The company offer a very good deal of been able to pop over to Gurnsey for the afternoon, do some shopping, have dinner and catch the last ferry back to Poole. Very highly recommended for all those whocan (I dont work for Condor by the way

)

On a simular note a few years ago i was ChOff and a 15DWT tanker heading East up channel when the Condor Express crossed 5 cables ahead and almost the same time the Condor Vitess crossed 5 cables astern! It was almost like being in SS!

It would be easier having Brittany Ferries 'Normandie Express' instead, then you can do Portsmouth - Marseille, two ports already created in-game. The cats are the same class, they will just have differant liveries

andyrumo · « **Reply #18 on:** September 01, 2007, 21:35:22 »

Despite Marseille being on the South Coast of France and no such route existing ... and it wouldn't actually be easier because the boat would have to be made still!

agibbs98 · « **Reply #19 on:** September 01, 2007, 22:09:29 »

but would you rather make the boat, then make the route (portsmouth to marseille)

or

make the boat, make the route and make the channel islands/northwest france ports?

andyrumo · « **Reply #20 on:** September 01, 2007, 22:12:55 »

the second because it's what happens!

boating · « **Reply #21 on:** November 08, 2007, 03:03:39 »

put the ferry in the shipsim

SPEEDBOAT · « **Reply #22 on:** November 08, 2007, 04:44:18 »

Nice

Sam · « **Reply #23 on:** November 09, 2007, 16:40:52 »

I would love the condor,

but I like the design of the incat 91m more.

If you're looking for a fast ferry... why not one of the Superseacats that used to work out of Dover...

Lovely boats to travel on. Very manouverable- as we found out one time when the skipper decided to change course rather abruptly. The worst waste of a pint I've ever seen

PS. Yes, I do know they aren't catamerans before someone tells me. Nor are they deep vee monohulls as they are also sometimes called.

Stu

EDIT: Does anyone know what angle a vee hull becomes a deep vee? I was told 35, but just found a source to contradict that.
