RE: Pet Peeves II

Any squid will tell you: those aren't ships, they're "boats" (said with a sneer).

i.e. any bozo with a paddle can "captain" a boat. [:-]

RE: Why wont this TF move?

ORIGINAL: Anachro

You have it docked. Undock it.

Don't know time frame nor size of Noumea port, but if you undock it, then dock the follow-on TF, it may load faster and you'll be on your way.
