    Hi Steve and Alicjia
    I have to admire the way that your always so respectful of other people when filming these types of videos.Other shall we say less thoughtful youtubers seem to think that they have a god given right to just plough through other people simply because they have a camera in there hand.Ive always said that please and thank you are short words but they can achieve an awful lot.You both epitomise that fact.Keep up the great work as we all love the vudeos

    I have a cousin still living in Ferryden and an uncle used to live on Rossie Island. My dad served his apprentiship as a shipwright on Rossie Island in the 1920's - when we were children (1950-60's) it was a very different place to what it is now. Loved your video an Ferryden and Scurdie Ness, keep em coming.

    It requires a very special kind of person to work and live on a ship. Not for the faint hearted. Even in today's technology.
    I cannot imagine how it must have been in the previous centuries. 😮
    Respect! 😊

      We've been softened and weakened by comfort and technology, when this ship was built if you needed to have a tooth removed you'd walk into a pub and ask someone to punch you in the face and you'd walk out with a smile. This is the Brittany Ferries' Santoña of the day.

    Another great video, I love tall ships, so elegant.
    We spent our 25th wedding anniversary in Bergen Norway and our hotel was across the road from where the Statsraad Lehmkuhl was moored.
    We couldn’t go aboard but could get up close, I can’t remember what it was called in the show but it had a starring role in The Onedin Line TV series.
    As an aside while on my epic learning to drive tour around Scotland I drove onto Aberdeen docks looking for a friend of my instructor, we did find him, probably not allowed these days.

Not as old as Alvei and a bit tidier inside as you'd expect. You can check her out on line just Google her name. Cheers !

    oh, Steve - this was so worth watching... I loved the tour, and the imaginations, that pop up, about being out on this one, in a big storm... my belly gets already swooshy at the mere idea... its so interesting to notice my contradictory feelings... I absolutely love it and get so excited, and yet I'm so scared, would feel so claustrophobic on it, even doing the tour would be already a challenge...
    maybe we are all reincarnated sea rats, and feel our vague memories tearing at us, while our common sense tells us: NO WAY, JOSE!!! 😆⛵
