Abstract
    This report had been written but not finished in 2013 while executing the simulation study in the framework of the accessibility study of car carriers of Wallenius to the port of Zeebrugge. Two simulation models for a 227 m Car Carrier and a 200 m Car and Truck Carrier had been developed but finally only the 227 m Car Carrier was evaluated as being realistic. In this report the available data and the procedure for the scaling of the simulation models is described and the full or partial results are summarised.

    If the simulation models for the Fidelio and the MS Tosca will be used for a study or training, the manoeuvring characteristics should be recalculated with the latest executable of the simulation software. The simulation results in this report are probably not identical anymore.
