Worlds Largest Ferry - Stena Britannica

Having missed the inaugural sailing of both the Stena Britannica and its sister ship, the Hollandica, two of the world's largest ferries, I was pretty keen to get on one of them now that the spring is on its way.
I got a return journey on the Britannica on its trip from Harwich to the Hook of Holland, and once again the weather held out despite their having been forecasts of heavy rain. In short, the Britannica is a superb ship but if want to read the whole blog visit http://www.eurodestination.com/Short%20Breaks/Amsterdam/mini-cruise-to-amster...

Nice video. The view of the cargo deck proves that the 5000 lanemetres is too much.

@HDferryChannel Thanks for your comment. It sounds a lot but I really don't have a view on whether its too big or not.

@HDferrychannel the UK government want to get rid of Stena Brittanica and Stena Hollandica like you say they are way to much for the climate, they are too big for a ferry.

@eurodestination Believe me, it's way too much for the current economic climate
