It would be amazing, if there was a Polar scenario, to have an ice breaker or two

Sosa · « **Reply #178 on:** January 11, 2009, 22:38:07 »

Well, Antartica will be in SS2010 but there's no telling what other vessels we will be getting. Vstep has been secretive on there developments thus far with the exception of the short teaser. But in addition to an icebreaker i'd like to see maybe one or two icebreaking tankers which are capable of breaking through ice without assistance from a vessel dedicated to icebreaking duties.

Mastera

Vasily Dinkov

These last two pictures are the new build, Mikhail Ulyanov. Beautiful design. I can't wait to see her when she's done.

I voted for tugs and here are my reasons:

Since VSTEP released what kind of ships the SS'08 would get I proposed the integration of tugs with Voith-Schneider or pod/azimot/schottel propulsion. This is interesting and challeging to stear / manouver.

Here are some examples

This is tug uses stern drive schottels

Am with you Blackbat,
These type of vessels are a good challenge, once a good azimuth controller gets on the market it will be more fun.

An Icebreaker would be good.

Also PDF Charts of each harbor with berth info
1. AIS
2. Intergrated Teamspeak (VHF)
3. COMARPA
4. Some type of Bridge Navigation System
5. Dynamic Positioning if possible

SHdude out!

sgoudie · « **Reply #183 on:** April 27, 2009, 21:02:11 »

I would like to see these vessels on ship sim

Five of these vessels were built for the shetland island council in 1974 but thay are is only one still in service today and that is the "THORA" and two of the other sisters still remain in shetland but both now converted to workboats, the other two are away from home, one is working in canada named "ISLAND JOINER" and the other one has been converted in to a workboat called "TASK ONE".

A VLCC in Ballast. Or part cargo.
It would be good if there was a facility to make the VLCC model vary in loading condition..

I think it would be good to have an incat ship on there = a Big wave piercing catamaran like the Norman Arrow or th Normandie Express !

I would like one of them because they are amazing and i have benn to the bridge on the Normandie Express ! It was so cool !
Incat,Incat, Incat !!!!

Nice suggestion and pics Jake,

Welcome to the forum

Hi Jake, and welcome, indeed!

I love that shot of the wake, Jake.

Minime · « **Reply #189 on:** May 29, 2009, 18:14:53 »

Yes very nice shot of the wave and the bridge too

calmac · « **Reply #190 on:** June 28, 2009, 13:29:42 »

well, might i make a small suggestion

why not replace the pride of rotterdam with the pride of bilbao seeing as you have portsmouth maybe add her spanish port aswell

and actually allow her to sail into portsmouth continental terminal, instead of letting the pride of rotterdam ground at the entrance, so i suppose you would have to add in the terminals, portsmouth and santurtzi

also mabye some calmac boats

I agree, we could do with a CalMac ferry in Ship Sim

MV Caledonian Isles, the Arran ferry. She is 94m long, 15.8m width and has capacity for 1000 pax and 110 cars. Top speed is 15 knots.

p.s. My son says he wants to see a 50,000 hp turbo-charged speedboat in Ship Sim! (I think he watches too many 'Top Gear' programme on TV!!

)

Nathan|C · « **Reply #193 on:** June 28, 2009, 14:19:30 »

That looks familiar, is her sister the Isle of Lewis?

The IoL is in Virtual Sailor...

Hi Nathan,

They're not sisters but both of them were built within a few years or each other so in some respects they have similar designs (i.e hull shape, wheelhouse etc).

Caledonian Isles was built in 1993, while Isle of Lewis was introduced 2 years later.

Kev

p.s. I have IoL in VS, very nice!

MV Oriana....IMO one of the prettiest of the modern breed of cruise ships;

Also one of my faves because a fairly close cousin of mine was commodore ian gibb, who commanded this ship for the first 5 years or so of its service before he retired....I'd love to be able to sail it in shipsim

Spitfire boy · « **Reply #196 on:** July 01, 2009, 18:06:18 »

Like i said, best of the modern cruise ships....if we're gonna get into a discussion about liners of a similar ilk to the original oriana, i always preferred the look of the canberra;
