So about this ferry..?
Named after this brave looking fellow..

Wave Music · « **Reply #1626 on:** July 29, 2009, 00:14:31 »

There (http://www.austal.com/index.cfm?objectid=36E9FFA2-65BF-EBC1-2569B74C58148DB0)

That is such an unsatisfying answer, she is not called "there"..

But you're right: the Jean de la Valette..

You know, SD - "Time is money!". I don't bother to read all that just to find the name...

I'm 100% sure that Captain Best knows the answer!

But do you know about...

saltydog · « **Reply #1630 on:** July 29, 2009, 03:18:50 »

The Westernland..

Correct. Did you PMed the owner for the answer?

saltydog · « **Reply #1632 on:** July 29, 2009, 08:16:33 »

I did my usual sloppy research...

New one: name of this nice looking cargo ship, built in 1961, nicknamed "The White Swan of the South Atlantic"
Also: where is she now..?

Wave Music · « **Reply #1633 on:** July 29, 2009, 08:18:01 »

Cap San Diego, in Hamburg

saltydog · « **Reply #1634 on:** July 29, 2009, 08:19:05 »

That was quick..! Yes, she is now a maritime monument there..

Wave Music · « **Reply #1635 on:** July 29, 2009, 08:19:28 »

What's so special about her that she was & is famous?

saltydog · « **Reply #1636 on:** July 29, 2009, 08:44:49 »

I don't know if she is so famous, but for one thing, she was a very nice looking cargo-passenger ship I think..

Here's an interesting site: http://www.capsandiego.de/Summary/Information_in_English_History.html

That's why I'm asking - if she's not famous then why she's so famous on this forum because I see the question regarding her name has been already asked 5 or 7th time?

it's your go, remember..?

Wave Music · « **Reply #1639 on:** July 29, 2009, 12:14:02 »

Ok, here's an interesting one:

What's the name of the new cruise tallship that will be ready for sail in summer of 2010?
As officially said, when she enters the service she'll be the worlds largest tallship, beating the current record-holder, Star Clippers‘ Royal Clipper.

However Star Clippers is planning yet-unnamed new ship for a spring 2010 debut, which that company also claims will be the world’s largest full-rigged sailing ship

...I'll say that you both were right since SD found more infos about Star Clippers' new ship than I found

Sorry for late reply - I was on shipspotting across our Port of Kaliningrad.

Not so many ships but anyway it was worth to go.

Wave Music · « **Reply #1647 on:** July 29, 2009, 20:28:01 »

A wild guess: Speed One

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #1648 on:** July 29, 2009, 21:47:20 »

It is Speed One

Wave Music · « **Reply #1649 on:** July 29, 2009, 22:10:59 »
