If anyone is interested in big boats there is a large P & O liner in Thurso bay just now. I wonder if I could be a "stow-away"? Nobody would notice an extra little one! ;)

You're not understanding the AIS data.

When AIS reports "Passenger (60)" that means it's a Type 60 passenger vessel, not 60 passengers.

The Adonia can accommodate over 700. How many is on is another matter though.

We spoke to over a hundred of them today whilst they were taking photos through the locked gates of Old St Peters Church. They all signed our petition to get the gates open. Apparently there were over 700 on board.
