The small Danish ferry MF Marstal, which ply between Ærøskøbing on Ærø and the town of Svendborg on Funen island, sailed far from the fastest way, since the Saturday night was on the way to Funen. It writes Fyns Amts Avis.
The strange passage, which is shown by the image below, captured John Lundsgaards attention.
– I’m sitting and bored me a bit and ends, therefore, on the Live Ships Map. And immediately you think, wondering if there is a christmas party on board, says svendborgenseren to Fyns Amts Avis.

The ferry sails around on itself several times and deviates significantly from its normal course, is not that the captain had a schnapps or three too much, assures Ærøfærgernes director.
– As location 2 in Ærøskøbing is under reconstruction, it can only be used in good weather. After the ferry had sailed last trip, it was because of the strong wind decided to lie over for the night in Svendborg. Here is it first possible to get into when the other ferry departed on the last trip. The captain chose, therefore, to obtain made normal natrengøring and at the same time to adapt the voyage to the arrival in Svendborg, says Keld Møller to Fyns Amts Avis.
It is unknown whether there were passengers on the somewhat odd passage, since it has not been possible for the Extra Leaf of get a comment from Keld Møller.
