HSS STENA VOYAGER belfast to stranraer 11/09/2011.

This craft is soon to be retired from the belfast to stranraer route so we took one last sail on it.

I'm Really going to miss that boat and you's at that live at belfast If you go down to the old stena line dock in belfast you can see the stena navigator and stena caledonia laid up there and if you go to the new stena line port you can see the stena hss voyager laid there Thumbs up If You miss The Stena Hss Voyager

[@Jimbo1780]

RIP Stena Voyager (1996-2013 you legend fast craft

[@adamfletcher6312]

Yup

[@livelifelikeellie2702]

I miss travelling on this😓

[@kierenmgp]

ive had so many memories on this boat over the years, only 13 year old but i miss this boat like mad!

[@michaelgrzesiek9765]

The memories on this ferry were the best I miss it so much

[@JamesH-pp6ho]

I travelled on this from Stranrear to Belfast back in August 2011 it was a great experience

[@scaniaV8topline1]

One day The stena Explorer to holyhead had to do 40 knots all the way due to extreme rough weather ! it was shocking though to see it do 40knots instead of 25knots !

[@kierenmgp]

i don't know about you but i find the Superfasts quite rocky, the HSS was smooth as anything, very sad to see her go :(

[@KingConorW]

There's something unnerving about the significance of that date, but nevertheless, it is very sad to see the old HSS go. Having been on about forty journeys with the 'Concorde of the Seas', two with the Stena Caledonia and two the the Stena Superfast VII, I must say that this one is by far my favourite.

Happy Memories

Stena voyager is to be towed out of Belfast lough this weekend. To be scrapped in Sweden . A sad end for a great ship. 02/05/2013

[@kierenmgp]

The navigator ship is now called "MS Daniya" and operates in foreign waters! sad to see that ship go too :( if only i was a millionaire to buy these brilliant ships!

[@joehart9458]

WAS ON THE HSS 7/ 8 TIMES ONLY HAD ONE ROUGH SAILING ON IT , DEF MISS IT

[@kierenmgp]

Another Amazing ship ive been on many of times at 4:05

[@scottmairs9014]

They should put stena voyager back on wif the superfasts outta belfast. She should also go to stranraer to save them building a new port. That would be awsome. GET VOYAGER BACK!!!

[@Chillkroete]

Its going to retire? I sailed on Voyager countless times. It always was my favourite ferry. Well.. i think i have a reason to switch over to P&O again....

[@002George002]

@Speedfreakcologne All 3 of the ships on that route are being replaced with Superfast VII & VIII. It's sad to see the Voyager go :(

[@richardhirst2281]

stena HSS craft way ahead of thier time like the concorde of the seas and a victim of their own success due to operating costs. Heavy fuel use . but lovely to travel on wish they still around Use to travel a lot on seacats when on service in the english channel but HSS look anthr dimension

[@MrStu2582]

@StenaLine2011 Sad to see it go but it has suffered the same fate as CONCORDE. The price of oil means that it is too expensive to operate. Like concorde the voyager coud not go at full speed in belfast lough and loch ryan making it uneconomical.I considered this craft to be the concorde of the sea ways.

[@worldoftravel9008]

I miss hss i youst to go on them and evan sader stranrear IS GONE 😳😳😳😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@kierenmgp]

:( why would they Scrap a masterpiece like that?, if i won the lottery i would of bought that ship, had some great memories on that ship and sad to see it get "scrapped" i would of thought it could of been sold :(, thanks for the info mate.

[@kierenmgp]

Sadly they have made the decision to scrap her in Sweden :(

[@scaniaV8topline1]

Yes they are capible of doin 30knots but there normal service speed is 23 knots .. says it on the back of a stena postcard of superfast vii i bought

[@jamesshaw7171]

40 kts. Also during testing, she hit 57kts

[@MrStu2582]

The new terminal can be seen at 11:24. Thats a TOBERMORE trailer at the new terminal that i tried to zoom in on.

[@belfastbusfan]

is stena voyager retired too

[@TheAbderaman]

sadely retired and scrapped in sweden in 2013 sad for a high tech vessel like this and stena explorer the amiral vessel was retired and sold to turkey he will be in service as HSC one world karadeniz and recently the ship is actually for sale again

[@TheAbderaman]

also stena discovery was scrapped :( in 2015 in turkey he was retired for its high fuel consumption

[@belfastbusfan]

abderaman alzemouri how old was she

[@belfastbusfan]

abderaman alzemouri what is your favourite stena ship

[@TheAbderaman]

of course the stena explorer ! the fastest and most modern

[@Gonkawonga]

I was with Stena Link, the ship was called sea cats?? 1996

[@belfastbusfan]

Greg Norman oh god i know about those heaps of crap people my mum and dad went on one and they thought they were going to die it was bouncing that much and it was calm seas

[@jamesshaw7171]

The hss is so much better than the sea cats

[@markjonno91]

​@@jamesshaw7171 I went on Seacat years ago & as soon as I came off it my face was actually green no joke, Stena line was nearly as bad 🤢🤮

[@jamesshaw7171]

@@markjonno91 I always found the sea cats worse than HSS. HSS was in a different league in my opinion

[@markjonno91]

@@jamesshaw7171 they were both vomit comets for me lol I'm going on a cruise around the Mediterranean next month so hopefully that will be a better experience!

[@Jimbo1780]

Today it sucks without discovery voyager and even the exploror making it worse over money costs of fuel

[@klauselstner933]

Leider wackelt es viel zu sehr. Sonst würde es mir schon gefallen. Ein paar mehr Einzelheiten vom Innenleben des Schiffes fehlen vielleicht noch.

[@markjonno91]

The vomit comet! Horrendous crossings

[@scottmairs9014]

I know, I know :(

[@ryanheaney7686]

It cost £33,000 pound from belfas and bak and the super fast it the seem speed as navigator took 3rs from belfast to Stranraer and i timed how long it took from Stranraer to cairnryan and took 30 mins and from belfast to cainryan takes 2 half rs so if the superfast was going to Stranraer it would take 3rs so it's no faster

[@paullindsay9451]

Horrible ship, if you can call it that.
