Yes, Ghost Ship , and based on the Andrea Doria..(not a very good movie apparently)
I don't know who to give the go-ahead, who-ever goes first I guess

That was the same as my Ghost Ship Question

So, if it's not a secret, will you tell the name of that ferry, or let this question stay for some hours?

Anyway, 04:24 o'morning...

SS Christopher Columbus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Christopher_Columbus) was the only "whaleback" ship ever built for passenger service.

saltydog · « **Reply #4410 on:** November 03, 2009, 17:24:15 »

Right, she was also the longest whaleback ever built..

Actually, the first name the Russians elegantly gave it was Kanada..

Her wheelhouse and radio shack are on view in the Maritime Museum in Moscow..

She was actually an icecutter, not an icebreaker.

saltydog · « **Reply #4424 on:** November 03, 2009, 23:31:32 »

Yes, seeing her bow, "icecutter" seems a more suitable name..
