Ferry from Hell
Mad Jock,
I think I'm right in saying that used to be the Suilven, that used to ply the Cal Mac' route from Ullapool to Stornoway.
I remember one sailing to Stornoway in 1981 when I felt so unwell ( maybe due to the over indulgence of wine and Guinness the night before in the Royal Hotel ) that I hoped she would sink to put me out of my misery!
Mind you the NZ sailing looks far worse.
