Thanks

What ship is this and what has happened to her recently?

Hint: Attempted entering Kinsale, County Cork.

Antarktis · « **Reply #9801 on:** July 28, 2013, 12:49:32 »

the Dutch tallship Astrid

It sank last Wednesday after hitting rocks.

Dannypenguin · « **Reply #9802 on:** July 28, 2013, 16:13:20 »

Quite a sad event, it looked like a nice vessel.

Correct! Your go.

Tell me the current name of this cable layer, built in 1992.

Correct!

larsdehaan · « **Reply #9807 on:** July 29, 2013, 15:09:34 »

Either HMS Illustrious or Invincible?

saltydog · « **Reply #9808 on:** July 29, 2013, 16:11:44 »

Nope..

Antarktis · « **Reply #9809 on:** July 31, 2013, 20:35:04 »

Juan Carlos I I think

saltydog · « **Reply #9810 on:** July 31, 2013, 20:42:51 »

Correct

Antarktis · « **Reply #9811 on:** August 01, 2013, 09:03:17 »

Now a (maybe) easy one:

Name of this ship?

saltydog · « **Reply #9812 on:** August 03, 2013, 05:04:50 »

Your other one was easier, it was either the Celtic Explorer or the Celtic Voyager (I think the first)
This one is a bit harder..

larsdehaan · « **Reply #9813 on:** August 03, 2013, 07:20:02 »

F/v Wizard?

Antarktis · « **Reply #9814 on:** August 03, 2013, 10:26:03 »

F/V Wizard is correct. The other one was R/V Celtic Explorer.
larsdehaan is next.

larsdehaan · « **Reply #9815 on:** August 03, 2013, 10:38:36 »

Name this ship, And her previous Names.

Hint: She's a celebration!

saltydog · « **Reply #9816 on:** August 06, 2013, 06:36:48 »

The MS Bahamas Celebration, first name Prinsesse Ragnhild..?

larsdehaan · « **Reply #9817 on:** August 06, 2013, 07:19:29 »

Exellent!
Your go.

saltydog · « **Reply #9818 on:** August 06, 2013, 17:08:15 »

Which true event is shown in this painting?

Dannypenguin · « **Reply #9819 on:** August 06, 2013, 18:28:46 »

I believe it is the event in World War 2 when RMS Queen Mary sliced through her escort ship HMS Curacoa off the Irish coast which killed 239 people. The ship, which is now in long beach California, is said to be haunted with the crewmembers of the Curacoa.

saltydog · « **Reply #9820 on:** August 06, 2013, 18:55:25 »

Absolutely correct..

Dannypenguin · « **Reply #9821 on:** August 06, 2013, 19:34:08 »

Thankyou

What unlucky ship is this?

Antarktis · « **Reply #9822 on:** August 06, 2013, 19:42:28 »

The Riverdance?

Dannypenguin · « **Reply #9823 on:** August 06, 2013, 20:53:08 »

Correct! Your go.

Rbsanford · « **Reply #9824 on:** August 06, 2013, 22:06:21 »

Could I request something? Maybe if there were more questions about things other than a ship's name, that would be great. Maybe questions about class of ship, nautical transportation-related historical events, ports/seaways, or questions that maybe more can answer. The most recent question by Saltydog is a good example.
