hissingsid Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Not a chance now the wee Kranky one has gone there are reports that there are money troubles now they have lost £600000 down the back of the sofa. The accountants resigned six months ago and no one felt the urge to mention it 😙. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smacks of wanting to be sure, really sure, and getting the ferry here asap. ETA now reported as the 20th. Seems it is getting a proper test...

John Wright Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Back in Ulsan, after 9 days of sea trials. Lots of speeding up, slowing down, tight turns. Max speed recorded was 19.6 kts. I’d have thought they would have hoped for 22 for faster runs to beat weather. Decision time now. Acceptance? 4-5 weeks to get to IoM. Condor’s new ( to them ) boat set off from NZ on Monday. Anticipated passage 7 weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
