Whatever next? Ferry operators who don't actually own any ferries? No, that could surely never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember asking the manager of the share fleet about it circa 2000 when we were thinking of ordering a Rigas. I think the one with the Rigas engine was called Spirit of Georgia! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray T Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) Invincible in recent colours and when in Challenger livery. Leaving out the rights and wrongs of what happened the Challenger boats were always immaculately turned out and I think they have good proportions. A sales brochure.

Dharl Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 The Challenger livery looks smart and I do like the lines of the hull and cabin. If only they had done a reverse layout might have gone for one..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
