For those that haven't been on a TT ferry yet.....................

Once you do you'll wish it was as fast as this one
hehe
Sorry
hehe
I saw the pic and was wondering/hoping the Steam Racket had introduced Fast Cat ferries frown

As long as it's not rough I don't mind to be honest.
Bloody Steam Racket more likely to make crossings longer to up revenue at the bar & restaraunt.

The mannan is alright, but to anyone who's on the Ben my cheree... LOL at you biggrin

Only good thing about the Ben my cheree is you can go out for a tab. You'll need it.

Is it worth bringing anything to protect paintwork against the straps they use on the ferry or is the bike going to get scratched no matter what?!

Not long now lads.

Just counted my pocket money. Is the TT an expensive place to be whilst your there ?

It doesn't have to be.
Beer, Food & Fuel are UK prices.


Although if you get caught speeding or being a c-unit you have to PAY ££££s fine before you leave the island.

Were driving down from Inverness, but leaving the car in Liverpool. Were going as foot passengers as were staying with friends near Brae Hill. So only spend will be food, drink, some merchandise oh and drink.

Does having an overly loud exhaust class you as being a c-unit over there, or do the police turn a blind eye given that its a festival of bikes?

Nope that won't be an issue.

C-unit= riding like one.

I usually pick up "practical Sportsbike" or something on the ferry, might have to give "Island Racer" a thumb through instead.


Thanks smile

Great pics^^^^They are the sort I love taking/seeing.


Only about 10% of my shots are ever of the actual "racing".
