Manly ferry,Rough ride

Here`s a video of Manly Ferry "Queenscliff" crossing Sydney Heads on its regular Manly to Sydney and vv commuter route, with 11M waves recorded offshore. The ferries,(destined to be replaced by catamarans with zero chance of confronting these conditions), follow the original Manly ferry design, most of which came from UK to Australia on their own bottom. I think service was suspended around the time this was taken, but they are great ferries with seagoing capacity. Interesting ride!
