Ferry the Suilven in storm off wellington NZ

[gilbertfield]

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.

what the fuck was he thinking

[southwestwingchun]

haha, that's so cool. what a great crossing. They certainly got their moneys worth that time.

[alaitain]

at least they knew how to turn the ship into the waves

[applesky007]

I loved the Suliven. A sturdy ship.

[callumwright]

lol, this IS actually the MV Kent, used by Straight Shipping

[billyboy1180]

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 :)

Joem6197 is right.

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

[stuartmac88]

you are wrong , this is the suilven

[Joem6197]

It's not the Suliven. Far too big.

That ship is a ghost ship.

The Suliven went to work for a Norweigan company.

[AN4U5]
