It is/was the Suilvan - owned by Strait Shipping who own Blue Bridge - it is/was small - slow (about a 5hr crossing) and a real stinker when full of cattle and sheep trucks :silent: :puker:

I was on one fo the 4 meter swell crossings just before christmas, I sat watching a movie at front of boat for most of the trip, after about and hour in the straight I couldnt sit in the movie anymore, it was that bad in there that you had to hold onto your seat as the front droped or else you wouldnt land in it!

I felt pretty crook on that trip ay
