C: It ran in canada.

CaptainMike1 · « **Reply #2976 on:** September 08, 2009, 12:19:39 »

What was this ship's first name, subsequent names including the present one and what was she most infamous for?

Wave Music · « **Reply #2977 on:** September 08, 2009, 12:28:15 »

Interesting stern near the waterline - perhaps they fitted her with azipods?

saltydog · « **Reply #2978 on:** September 08, 2009, 12:54:48 »

No azipods, the "duck-tail" was later added to aid her stability..

Ah, just like it was with the Georg Ots ferry.

WM, You should have got the answer by now! A very infamous ship!

Wave Music · « **Reply #2981 on:** September 08, 2009, 13:26:40 »

I got the answer, but I think it would be interesting to keep this staying for a while for the less enlightened people.

saltydog · « **Reply #2982 on:** September 08, 2009, 13:31:19 »

One of the reasons she was infamous,she was known in maritime history as the "Worst Roller of the North Atlantic"

But perhaps you mean an unfortunate accident that occured under an older name..

Ok, from front to back: Athena, Caribe, Valtur Prima, Italia Prima, Italia, Fridtjof Nansen, Volker, VÃ¶lkerfreundschaft, Stockholm..
On July 25 1956, as the Stockholm, she collided with the Andrea Doria..It was one of the most famous maritime disasters

Shame that no one could get that! Or they were as usual working, studying, sleeping, etc.

I suppose..

New one: name of this ship, specialized in this kind of transport..

Wave Music · « **Reply #2986 on:** September 08, 2009, 14:58:34 »

I'm sure it's the RMS this one or that one!.

saltydog · « **Reply #2987 on:** September 08, 2009, 15:00:54 »

I very much doubt she is a Royal Mail Ship..
But she is indeed the semi-submersible Yacht Express..
Here's an interesting link about her..http://www.yachtforums.com/forums/yacht-transport-ships-dockwise/8995-special-feature-dockwise-685-yacht-express.html

Then I was right that

Wave Music · « **Reply #2989 on:** September 08, 2009, 15:09:48 »

Name of this one, please.

saltydog · « **Reply #2990 on:** September 08, 2009, 18:04:18 »

Last Sunday, this ship collided with another containership..
Thanks to quick action, she was able to be towed into port where she was moored today..
Where..?

Nathan|C · « **Reply #2991 on:** September 08, 2009, 18:12:54 »

Rotterdam

saltydog · « **Reply #2992 on:** September 08, 2009, 18:15:05 »

Right..Unfortunately she is so badly damaged, she is declared a total loss..
Your go..

Nathan|C · « **Reply #2993 on:** September 08, 2009, 18:25:06 »

Name this ferry:

Wave Music · « **Reply #2994 on:** September 08, 2009, 18:36:49 »

SeaFrance Moliere or any of her sisters.

saltydog · « **Reply #2995 on:** September 08, 2009, 21:35:26 »

Seems like a green light to me..

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #2996 on:** September 08, 2009, 21:36:06 »

That is indeed the Moliere

Wave Music · « **Reply #2997 on:** September 08, 2009, 21:41:40 »

And I was in doubt that it could be also the SeaFrance Rhodin or SeaFrance Berliot or don't know how it called right.

Anyones go.
