PRIMROSE

Some 'primrose' that! More like a bale of hay, or several thousand all piled on top of one another! Donald.

Another former North Sea ferry is it not?
I think it likely that the sponsons were added just after the HOFE capsize.

PRIMROSE crossed for TranEuropa Ferries until 2011 between Ostend and Ramsgate. Before that she was a RTM (Régie des Transports Maritimes - Belgium) ferry. Not really beautiful I must say...

I think this is the ex Princess Marie Christine, (PMC),used to be on the Dover - Ostend run and later the Ramsgate - Ostend run, she had an extra deck fitted,(upper car deck I think) giving her this lofty somewhat unstable look. Probably looked a lot better before the extra deck was fitted.
