What port in what country was the PoR coming from, and what is the route she travels? And bonus: What landmark did PoR pass before leaving the Mediterranean?

Maybe it would be better to put these questions in English so we know what they mean?

Okay now I see

CaptainMike1 · « **Reply #5085 on:** December 07, 2009, 21:44:24 »

That's exactly what I said Stena Hibernia!!!!!!!!

saltydog · « **Reply #5086 on:** December 07, 2009, 22:30:51 »

The question was about a Stena Line ferry, not a Stena Sealink/Sealink Stena Line ferry..

Anyone to go..

CaptainMike1 · « **Reply #5087 on:** December 08, 2009, 14:16:24 »

Still don't get this, they were the same ship?

saltydog · « **Reply #5088 on:** December 08, 2009, 14:21:59 »

Yes, just she has had different names through the years/lines..
Here (http://www.ferry-site.dk/ferry.php?id=7507019&lang=en) you can see her in her different liveries..

McGherkin · « **Reply #5089 on:** December 08, 2009, 19:07:45 »

Okay,

What was this Hovercraft called (make and model), where did it operate and what was its biggest problem?

Stuart2007 · « **Reply #5090 on:** December 08, 2009, 19:12:05 »

Name: Bob
Make: Flymo
Location: Dover - Calais (same environment of course)
Biggest problem. It is very ugly

Correct in that respect, now can anyone else guess the rest?

EDIT: I swear i just saw IRI5HJ4CK laughing and a picture of a flymo lawnmower.

v.h94 · « **Reply #5092 on:** December 08, 2009, 19:19:05 »

Name: H/C COTE D'ARGENT
Problem: Tecnical problems mainly with the engines.
Model?

Stuart2007 · « **Reply #5093 on:** December 08, 2009, 19:20:32 »

Naviplane N500

IngÃ©nieur Jean Bertin or Cot d Argent

Biggest problem: Only one??? Don't know...

Did you know it crossed the Bay of Biscuit in its youth... Must have been a very calm summers day

EDIT: Problems Engines, hydraulics and it couldn't climb the Dover (with Calais in the same environment) hoverport... and it generally wasn't as good as the British H/Csss.... desolee, France

Correct.

The SEDAM Naviplane N500 operated from Dover to Calais, although, famously, in bad weather it was incapable of getting onto the hoverpad at Dover. Another problem i would have let you have is that the Cote d'Argent (sorry v.h94) caught fire after just seven running hours.

Stu gave the model name so his go
