Add to that also the ones that fly (hovercrafts, ekranoplans), the ones that go underwater and the ones that stay on ground (grounded ships & oil rigs) - so we have an army of Vstep robots trapped in their office.

i will have these 2 they are 2 fishingvessels as you can see but they are not hektrawlers but sidearm fishermen and as far as i know is this the only shipping company who have these they`re called wiron 1,2 (52M) and the wiron 5,6 (56M) these fishing vessel dont tug there nets but it is between them like the little animation below (yes its a ugly animation but it is for the people to give them a look how it works).

its nice for multiplayer or missions

If you get ShipSimExtreme it features the White Marlin which is based off of the Condor Vitesses

not sure what the "Condor comador" is though...?

the retired Washington State ferry, M/V Kalakala would be very nice

Rbsanford · « **Reply #1142 on:** February 05, 2012, 03:57:37 »

classy look.

but in order for her to really fit in the game (for missions mostly) we would also need wherever that ferry operates.

saltydog · « **Reply #1143 on:** February 05, 2012, 04:07:27 »

Streamlining was all the rage in those days..You saw it in locomotives as well.. Here the 'Mallard'

she operated in Washington state's Puget sound, she was on the Seattle-Bremerton route. she operated from the 1930s to the 1960s. M/V Kalakala is the first streamlined ferry and there is no other ferry like her.

M/V Kalakala is believed to be the first vessel to implement the use of electric-arc welding to fabricate its shape. this technique, perfected on Kalakala, would prove vital to our nationâ€™s defense as we prepared for and subsequently entered world war. The lessons learned in the construction of her superstructure would be used in the construction and repair conducted at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, local shipyards and fabrication facilities nationwide. It has been said that were it not for the welders which applied welding techniques used on Kalakala, the United States would not have been able to recover so quickly from the devastation wrought by Japanâ€™s attack on Pearl Harbor.

(here is her horn if anyone is interested http://www.evergreenfleet.com/kalakala.wav (http://www.evergreenfleet.com/kalakala.wav))

Although the company wished the vessel to be known as the Silver Swan, the vessel soon attracted other, less complimentary nicknames, including the Silver Slug, Silver Beetle, Galloping Ghost of the Pacific Coast, and, among Seattle's Scandinavian community, Kackerlacka, which means "cockroach".

The engine's crank shaft held the record for the longest in North America. However, it is suspected that the engine and crank shaft may have been poorly aligned. This may have been the culprit for her teeth-rattling vibration. Part of the problem was her propeller. After having her original four-blade prop replaced with a five-blade propeller in 1956, the vibration on the ferry was reduced by a substantial 40%.

Set back from her streamlined superstructure for aesthetics, it was impossible to see the bow of the vessel from the bridge. As visibility also depended on round portholes rather than a fully glazed wheelhouse, she was known for being difficult to handle when docking.
