I've been told there is some sort of ship/boat or ferry docked in Hull somewhere. I've also been told it's got a casino on it, I have a feeling it might be some sort of nightclub but have never heard of it.
Anyone any ideas what it is I've been told?
 
There's nothing coming up on Marine Traffic

If she is in the dock, she is not giving off a AIS signal. This might indicate she's laid up or in a dead state. There are presently approx 8 laid up ships in
Albert & William Wright Docks which are not giving off AIS signals so they don't appear on Marine Traffic.

I do have a feeling that someone has got their wires crossed with Hull & the one in Newcastle, somewhere along the way!
 
The Tuxedo Royale was in Newcastle but she closed down approx 10 years ago. She was then moved to Middlesbrough were
she has fallen into disrepair and will probably end up getting scrapped. The same fate as the Manxman that was in Hull.

The Manxman may have been it! Pity I don't have a name before, I'll check with that & see. Cheers!
