Not a Poseidon freak, but just a wild guess - QM2?

RMS Queen Mary 2 is the right one. Poseidon has the windows on the stern curve around, and the cranes on the bow, similar to QM2's. your go WM

Nope... The craneship Blue Whale it's the former oil/ore carrier Sept Hes from 70s, if I'm not mistaking.

Clue: crane is from ZPMC.

What's the name of this not very lucky Soviet (former German) liner?

saltydog · « **Reply #1565 on:** July 26, 2009, 20:48:42 »

The Admiral Nakhimov..(former Berlin )
She was unlucky allright: sunk by a mine in 1948, later refloated, finally sunk by a collision with a cargo ship in 1986..

Wave Music · « **Reply #1566 on:** July 26, 2009, 21:00:24 »

Correct, SD... The end of that liner was really sad, unfortunately. $:-\$

saltydog · « **Reply #1567 on:** July 26, 2009, 21:10:22 »

Staying on a sad note: this cruise ship was in the news today for a dramatic reason..
Name the ship, and what happened..?

Is this one of the ships the Russians and Allies demanded from Germany to replace the ships Germany had sunk?

And no, this isn't a question for the quiz thread; just for me

--tractorman-- · « **Reply #1572 on:** July 26, 2009, 22:00:24 »

Nope, they are all just commercial ferries..

saltydog · « **Reply #1573 on:** July 26, 2009, 22:10:19 »

Here you go Stuart..(aint Wikipedia great..?

I don't know if she was part of a compensation deal, maybe WM could answer that..
