Synopsis "By Ro-Ro to the Baltic"

The 1970s heralded the universal arrival of the dedicated roll-on roll-off freight ferry, or the ro-ro as it became more economically known. During the early years of the ro-ro several owners continued to carry a limited number of passengers in the same style and comfort as expected aboard their former conventional 'short-sea' freighters. 'By Ro-Ro to the Baltic' takes the reader aboard a bygone class-leading vessel for a 'fly on the wall' look at its operation on an intriguing near three-thousand mile voyage of several decades past.
