The two largest Superferries in the world will sail the North Sea between Harwich and Hook of Holland this year, following their launch by Stena Line this spring and autumn. Stena Line’s largest ever investment of over £375 million has been spent on building the two new vessels, with the Stena Hollandica launching on 16 May 2010 and the Stena Britannica following in autumn 2010.
The largest ferries of their type in the world in terms of combined passenger and freight capacity: each will be capable of transporting 230 cars, 300 freight vehicles and have 1,376 beds on board. The 538 cabins, finished in a light and fresh style, will be equipped with Dux beds, wider than on standard ferries, measuring a minimum width of 900mm and up to 1600mm in ‘captain’s suite’ rooms. All cabins will have a modern en suite bathroom with Hans Grohe fittings, and larger windows have been installed in both bathroom and main cabin areas to provide a feeling of space and light. |
 With an estimated 500,000 touring caravans in use, the NCC (National Caravan Council) is advising owners to check the condition of tyres before every journey, to ensure both their safety and that of other road users. Particular attention should be paid to the age of the tyres.
This advice is because caravan tyres do not tend to wear out due to high mileage like car tyres. However, the rubber degrades due to exposure to UV radiation from sunlight and other weather conditions.Therefore even if the tyres do not appear to be worn, it is recommended that they are replaced seven years from the date they were manufactured.
To identify the tyre's age, owners can check the Date of Manufacture Code which is printed on the tyre. The code is four digits, for example '1807' which would indicate the tyre was manufactured in the 18thWeek of 2007. When replacing tyres also ensure that they are correctly rated for the maximum plated weight of the caravan.

There has been a lot of talk on the forums about servicing lately, who to go to, who not to go to so I thought I would let you know about the the "The Approved Workshop Scheme" By no means new but certainly worth pointing out to people that may not be aware of it.

Skelwith Fold Caravan Park in Ambleside is the Lake District's new holiday champion. That was the decision of judges in the 2010 Cumbria Tourism Awards who this month (11 May 2010) presented the Holiday Park of the Year accolade the business's Henry Wild.
Skelwith Fold shares the honour with Woodclose Park of Kirkby Lonsdale on the Lancashire border, and means that both parks now go through to represent Cumbria in the Northwest Tourism Awards later this year.
The Holiday Park of the Year prize for Skelwith Fold came with two special tributes from the judges. They singled out both the quality of the welcome provided by staff, and the park's commitment to conservation, sustainability, and helping visitors to enjoy its abundant wildlife.
Both factors, they decided, were major contributors to Skelwith Fold's success in "offering a world class experience for its guests". |
