HI

It is my first post here, and i have not answered any of your questions yet

However since anyone is invited to the next question:

Does any of you know this icestrengthened passenger/cargo vessel.
And perhaps its history, it was designed to be practically unsinkable.

I think that hint means it's a ship from the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC)
Don't know the name of the ship, maybe someone else does..

Gernot1971 · « **Reply #8861 on:** May 06, 2012, 20:24:32 »

@Tolsrunde: The Name of the ship, please. And next time a little clue after 2 hours will be fine.

@michael_tall: A litte tip? An MSC ship is clear.

Ahh sorry, was not able to be at the PC - and the two hours has certainly passed

The name was Hans Hedtoft. it was build in 1959 to supply Greenland, watertight compartments, double bottom and 'unsinkable'.
Sunk with all hands at Cape Farewell on her maiden voyage. It sent SOS stating hit an iceberg, and aprx. four hours later 'sinking slowly' and then it disappeared without a trace. 9 months later a lifebouy was found drifted ashore in Iceland.
Remembrance of Titanic ...

Again sorry for not beeing on PC-duty, and misunderstanding the two hrs rule.

You know, how many ships the MSC Company have at present? You dont give us a clue to help after a long time.

MSC Silvana, Tomoko, Heidi, Rania, Sylvana could it be, or not.

Could be not one of these 5 ships.

The 2 hour rules will be held, to let this game attractive.

Thanks for the answer. Have search a long time for the ship. Find many interest ships, but not yours.

Hope you have a good question again, and now you know the 2 houer rules.
