I thought Island slang was "what smells and comes out of Cow(e)s backwards"

My issue, is that if it is empty I wound not want to spend 3 hours loading it container by container. Unless there is a option where you can have it loaded or unloaded.

I agree...that would be quite...repetitive and annoying.

Hi bruces,

At present, you don’t have to worry about spending “three” hours loading Vermaas because the maximum number of containers that you can have under the crane is currently 17 for the mission. Vermaas will only accept 10 of them at one time.
Loading her with what she has now would take much longer than three hours if the crane had an unlimited supply.

There are technical reasons why it would be very hard to give Vermaas a full set of attachment points even if such a nutty idea were to be considered.

The present travel of the crane along the wharf is limited to about 4 TEU. That would require the ship to be warped during loading unless the length of the crane object was made longer than Vermaas. There is probably no clear wharf space in any environment that could accommodate it.

We do get a few far out suggestions from those who have a rather narrow view and don’t consider all of the ramifications of what they demand.
With Extremes estimated to be released in less than three months, it is unlikely that any of the recent demands will ever be found in SS2008. It is unlikely that they will be found in Extremes any time soon.

Regards,
Marty
