I want to see Irish Ferries in there!

Yeah, it's about time we take a break from English(not including NI), German and American harbours.

Just my opinion.

What about a ferry running from Genoa in Italy to Grand Harbour Malta, both are complicated harbours. In Genoa its the customs that make it a problem and in Malta its the channel and the 90 degree turn to port through the breakwater and then it would have to be turned before berthing in Frenchmans Creek.

Dustybin,

I understand the context of your jab now, and in that context no offense is taken. As an Army sailor we took our fair share of jabs at the Navy. Infact, when I retired from the Army I took command of a Navy research ship. I rigged all the computers on the bridge to play the Army song when they turned on. We all thought it pretty humorus to have an Army officer in command of a Navy ship. If the ship you went on had USNS on the Brow, it had to be a Civilian (Military Sealift Command) ship. Either that or they stole somone brow.

Anyway mate, a quick google search using USS or USNS will list the ships with those designators.

While the different ferries would be nice, what we really want is the environments that they operate in.

And to have them connected in on line environment.

Kevin

If Irish Ferries were going to be added to the game the M/S Ulysses would be my choice.

Hi KDS

I got no time for this. It will be a very long time until I can say "yes" since I'm up to taking a course to get the truck driver certificate in this month. So I'm unsure if I ever will have time for this interest. I'm not earning anything on it and my life unfortunately depends on money in my age.

I'm afraid that trucks may become my next interest if this goes well

Poll

Which Ferry company would you like to see in the game? (and your favourite ship specify please)
