Is this a wave peircing craft? -- Gbleem 00:33, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
I am suggesting that HSV-X1 Joint Venture and HSC Manannan be merged into a single article, as they are both about the same vessel, at the moment large sections of content overlap between the two, and I cannot see the combined operational histories being of such size that separate articles are warranted. However, I am not sure which name the ship should be merged to, and am open to suggestions. -- saberwyn 05:37, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
Well I don’t know what the best move is. But I do know this is not the only duplicate article about an Incant that has had military and civilian service, and a page for each. Example: HMAS Jervis Bay (AKR 45) and HSC SpeedOne Some would argue that her military service is more notable, so it should go under her serving name. But then on the other hand others say it should go under its current operating name. Personally I don’t know, what does the Wiki ships guide lines say in this instance?

The article should be under her build name - the most used name within the shipping community - Incat 050, with all other names redirecting
i.e. Devil Cat, Top Cat, Mannanin should redirect to Incat 050(no-one seems to have picked up on her life as Top Cat yet...)
She did actually spend some time in service as Incat 050
To have two articles on the same ship is a nonsense. There COULD be a case for a second article describing her military service life - if enough data could be found for it. Maybe a better idea would be an article on "Military experimental use of high-speed multi-hulled craft" linking to this vessel, HSC Spearhead (Incat 060) Jervis Bay (Incat 045) and HSV 2 Swift Those latter articles should also be retitled under their Incat names with redirects from the other names
There could be a case for also linking in the UK-built HMS Triton trimaran, though that really is a different animal, being a pure experimental craft, not a converted ferry.

I've re-jigged the article to trim the overlap with the Manannan page. I've also tried to put the civilian stuff over there and keep the military stuff here. Xyl 54 ( talk) 06:15, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
I corrected an error in deployment history, i.e. the Navy and Army each had her twice for several months at a time. Navy first and third, Army second and fourth. My brother was the Navy skipper. Dbeierl ( talk) 06:33, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
