    Good, why could they not have also done this with the ferries though?

      AFAIK it was due to the slightly weird jurisdiction that ships fall under due to moving between countries.

        Sorta. Legal jurisdiction on a ship is the nation it is registered in. IE its flag nation.

        Shipping companies etc register ships in nations that give them advantages legally.

        Then hilariously enough mark ownership. In different nations as the 2 are not related. This allows tax advantages.
