I llike the Quinsam and Quinitsa and Skeena Queen, the Mill Bay not so much. It's weird looking because it has no passenger waiting rooms, and a bridge in the middle, on one side of the vessel.

If you don't believe us that the lounge is in the engine room check this out The Mill Bay |

Anyone who does those types of ferry facts should be a ferry historian. And then you have an appearence on a Monty Python movie and get killed by a knight on a horse LOL Monty Python and the Holy Grail is a awesome movie ;D Wait! that's a Famous Historian |
