These are Henrik's ships..Do you use LNM? If so I meant the labels on that but my description was a bit wrong, in LNM left click a ship and it'll show you information about it (just like with aircraft).

Screenshot that over a ship you "believe" is GAIST if you can, thanksOK, here is the Gabriola ferry: Island Aurora.. I believe this is a GAIST ship.The label in MSFS is different, as you can see from the screenshot.. Why, I do not know.. Edited May 30May 30 by Bert Pieke Bert
May 30May 30 Just looked up these ferry names... Both the Island Aurora and Island Gwawis are in service and look alike. The Island Gwawis is actually the ferry that sails the Gabriola route.And this is what I find in the GAIST folder:[fltsim.0]title=AI_Island_Auroramodel=Auroratexture=ui_manufacturer=Henrik Nielsenui_type=BC Ferry Edited May 30May 30 by Bert Pieke Bert

BTW, can you see the screenshots? I have heard that Imgur does not work well in the UK.. If need be, I can provide download links. Edited May 30May 30 by Bert Pieke Bert

If need be, I can provide download links.Well they're useless in many departments but that's merely my opinion on what is an incomplete shipping feature since release, but yes I can see those pictures now. That kinda suggests the Asobo AI boats are using GAIST models, however again I see absolutely nothing in the English Channel whereas with GAIST in 2020 they were everywhere. Thanks for your help anyway, I'll stick with seafront and park GAIST until a hopeful update or Asobo change/fix but I'm not relying on the latter.

May 31May 31 Just to complete my investigation.. I turned off GAIST in the Community folder, and still get a Gabriola ferry, with the correct name, Island Gwawis, but the visual model is an Asobo ferry that does not look like the real thing.. So for me, GAIST is well worth enabling.. especially since all my local ferry routes appear to be populated with good looking models.. 🙂 Edited May 31May 31 by Bert Pieke Bert
