I miss Suilven on the Ullapool to Stornoway crossing. Especially after the Isle of Lewis almost going over on her side while I was crossing on it easter of 2006. 3 or 4 casualties on board. Only time I've ever been sea sick was on Suilven as a child and the entire crew were sick too but I never felt unsafe on her. Nice video but those seas look tame compared to the Minch on a really bad day. Seoras.
sorry guys, but the vessel IS the MV Suilven when she was operating in New Zealand with Strait Shipping. Vid shows her leaving the North Island, crossing to the South Island via the Cook Strait in a Southerly swell 2002 :)
what ferry is this 1? i know they had the lynx for a while then that died haha!! and how big is that swell ive been ova in the blueridge recently and that was cruising along with a 7 metre swell which rocked the boat rocked the boat baby lol

Joem6197 is right.
It's not the Suliven, it went to work for some Scandinavian company.

It's not the Suliven. Far too big.
That ship is a ghost ship.
The Suliven went to work for a Norweigan company.
