  • That's a nice one! These older vessels usually approach docking very slowly compared to other craft. I guess there's always the possibility of engine failure, just when reverse is needed.

  • @LibertaerUeberAlles

    The captain Stig Helge Samuelson, like to handle it with care.

    You kan see his comments on this page.

    The propellers is adjustable so you dont need a gear.

    The pitch can go from fast forward to zero and to then revers.

  • Strange that it only sounds like a twin!!? Shame that departure was so gentle, it surely didnt do it justice. It appeared that wind caught it and took it to sea.

  • The Captain know how too handle the ship.
