Is there a bow or a stern

no need for 180 turn

Both ends the same. No need to turnaround before docking. Should save time ramp to ramp. Common I think in British Columbia.

Theres a few more billion we've given to the chinese takeover fund! Another case of greed overcoming common sense and oh look its P&O again.

Shame it wasn’t British steel and British workers. Bet they have a mare getting it back to the dealers for any warranty work.

This springs to mind.

Many many years since that was true. As far as P&O goes, it's the Germans losing out to the Chinese.

Have they sacked the crew yet?

I thought we were all boycotting P & O after their treatment of their workers? Oh - that was a year ago! All forgotten now.

Very common. Pretty well all except the very largest ferries that we have been on

It is bound to have in built trackers for the Chinese govt.

 

[monzer]

You ugly!

 

[EuroTrotters]

I just don't understand why we are buying or leasing these Chinese Vessels.

No wonder the UK and Europe are in such a mess.
