Bourbon Orca passing Skandi Caledonia and Havila Faith

[texaca]

This thought accord to me, why hasn't anyone designed, or come out with a Aircraft Carrier with an X-Bow Hull design. Seems like the most logical choice for that time of vessel. could also apply to RO/RO car carrier ships. Have you seen how those ships get thrashed around on rough sea's... Really scarry..

[Kimmipwn665]

så, du er/var på Havila Faith da eller? stilig, skal selv på Havila Neptune etter sommeren :)

[Outlaw3051]

Always a funny thing to eat and sleep in days like these...

[Norwegian73]

X- Bow goes like a sub through the rough sea. Excellent design for such conditions..

[Flatpro01]

Nice ...

[Arvorbxl]

I quite like the new/ancient inverted bow design that seems to be getting alot of new attention these days , ive een pics of DCNS proposing new inverted bow frigate designs .

[XboxPhantom]

well i guess you don't have to worry about water over the bow

[smegelsarah]

bourbon dolphin went down with the captain and his very young son..very sad

[kevinandreboe]

[VOLVOFH16FAN]

[mircokaka]

[DessertMosquito]

No she is an anchorhandler - assisting drilling rigs in moving from one location to another

[rbellas]

I just love the X-Bow!.

But I have also heard from a Norwegian captain that the Bourbon Orca is a little unstable and that she tends to roll?.

Is this true?.

[matt4270]

whats the red boat? the jake lamatta 3?

[stonepone55]

it is the Skandi Caldedonia Owned by the DOF shipping company

[Powertampa]

whats the music called?

[majaorca100]

I think she's quite beautiful Nice video!

[fitthefeck]

was the bourbon dolphin same design? that was sad, never expect it to happen to a new boat

[tuberik1]

[Bitonic]

Bourbon Dolphin was a greate ship

and i hope it happens not again

R.I.P

[olevik1]

X-bow generelt er veldig bra(Y)

Har jobbet ombord i B. Monsoon og synst at skroget var supert(Y)

Skala frå 1-10 = 10 fra meg

[elyohcsrev]

Love the way she carries her way easily.....doesn't 'stop' all the time. And the shape grows on you after a while.

[solent38]

Initially I looked at this and thought what is all that about.

However this appears to work and I think this concept will be used more and more.

In fact after a while it isn't that bad on the eye either!

[Xantec]

bloody ugly more like, but it works.

still ugly!

[thanasisgr1988]

i thought that Bourbon Orca must be usless in bad weather but just isn't!!!!! very good ship indeed

[fuzzynutsmccrackin]

is that in the north sea?

[astorfromnorway]

Yes kinda, by the west coast of Norway heading out to the North Sea.

[tytje90]

Den båten er helt rå:)

[Johannes1955]

Very good design indeed!!

[BigpopeyeBig]

wow nice boats lol great song wats it called ?

[DiffoofNorway]

sykt god båt, var med i desember i uvær. den gikk bra mistet ikke fart under bølger.

[Sjofugla]

Fantastic video and music. X-bow rocks!.

Mange takk.

[janderson95]

Whats the song called?

[astorfromnorway]

The song is called "Blodhund" Wich is something like bloodhound/dog in english. Made and played by Joachim "Jokke" Nielsen.

[Tuckmando]

inverted flare...very clever design

[kristoff3r92]

X-bow ser ikkje så fint ut.. men tenk den behagelige komforten ombord på båten:P

[astorfromnorway]

vassnesingen: Det er ikke sant med tanke på Bourbon Orca, steady mannskap der.

[vassnesingen]

mangen som har sluttet på den burbon båten da, fordi den slingrer som bare juling

[Negrav]

HAr jo hørt om mange søkere på Orca,men det er stadig fullt..

[sebcio]

x-bow, ugliest ship in the world

[kkllnmo]

Super video (dette vil vi se mer av) .....HÅPER på mer Action videos av denne båten når høst/vinter stormene setter inn . !!!

[lovemusikk]

rååååå båt.. og ganske så fine inni og :-)

[larsegutt1]

freak of nature? that is your opinion...but it is no doubt that she loves the heavy seas. I think she is raw!

[skippern666]

It is a shame for me as a DOF employee to see Skandi Caledonia overtaken by a freak of nature like that....

[meraklikiz]

güzel bir video.macera heyecan,aksiyon .mükemmell

[cselje]

Ufattelig stilig video! Har sett denne båten på nært hold på Mongstad endel ganger, men det kan ikke sammenlignes med å se båten i fart forbi andre båter;)

[kongefisken1]

R.I.P dolphin å de tapre sjøfolka som gikk tapt :( Tenker på dere

-Sjømann

[Fidelio0690]

What's the purpouse of this ship and where she was bulit ?

[soh22]

The purpose of the ship is to to work out on the oil-fields with anchers(?)

She was designed and built at (<3)Ulstein Verft(<3) in 2006

The thing that makes x-bow so much better than other bows is that the boat with x-bow goes much smoother in sea.

[Fidelio0690]

Ohhh, love the bow solution, excellent for heavy seas !!!

Good job !!

[MedlineIII]

First time I see x-bow design working and it´s spectacular, much better than older. Very interesting video

[Noniulv]

Dette er stilig. Film mer! Hvilken musikk er det?

[astorfromnorway]

Joachim Nielsen (Jokke) med låta "Blodhund"

[JORTEFOT]

Hallo astor vilken båt ble det nå?Orca igjen eller skal på Dolphin som styrmann jeg nå.Geir elkadetto fredrikstad

[astorfromnorway]

Hei. Er på Orca jeg. Lykke til med ny båt!

[nordrott]

Hun er super! Skroget fungerer akkurat som forventet! Men noe urettferdig sammenligning da! :P

Orca er jo noe mer massiv enn "fjærlette" nordsjø-traileren Caledonia!

[kkllnmo]

Dett er en SUPER film, der vi virkelig få se effekten av den flotte skuta sin baug form !!

Søk på min film av supplybåt i storm... så får du høre slagene i motsjø med en vanlig baug. (SØK på kkllnmo eller ship in storm 1 og 2.)

Meget bra film du har her !!

[Noniulv]

Har sett de også. Kjempebra. Blir man sjøsyk eller er det forskjellig fra person til person?
