    Toreador has appeared on the radar again. I thought it would have been further down the west coast of Africa, but I guess I was wrong. Can that ship sail any faster?

    Same with me! Frostee has a Polo GTI on there too I believe.

    Anyone else on our boat?

    This is what I've been mentioning... each car drives to the ramp, where it stops whilst another person scans in the barcode which is stuck to the windscreen, that then uploads all the manifest details... so the car's details are available before it's even been tied down.

    It's only rare occasions where the ship's already been sailing before cars appear. I'm not sure what the case is that causes that to occur (weather blocking the wireless? who knows?)

    There's a Discovery Channel documentary as part of the Mighty Ships series which focuses on a RORO shipc alled Faust. You guys should check it out if you can find it
