A fine bow on shot
Taken whilst driving towards the ship
She is still looking grand
(We thank © Bohn Butler for the three photographs
above)
Her once grand funnels are looking forlorn
We believe they have been repainted recently
She is certainly a Big Ship with a big hull!
This photograph made the author cry!

We
Remember the Mega Liner she was
Will she take to the sea again NO she will NOT!

Photographs on ssmaritime and associate pages are by the author
or from the author’s private collection. In
addition there are some images that have been provided by Shipping Companies
and private photographers or collectors. Credit is given to all contributors.
However, there are some photographs provided to me without details regarding
the photographer/owner concerned. I hereby invite if owners of these images
would be so kind to make them-selves known to me (my email address may be found
on www.ssmaritime.com
only), in order that due credit may be given. I know what it is like, I have
seen a multitude of my own photographs on other sites, yet these individuals
either refuse to provide credit or remove them when asked, knowing full well
that there is no legal comeback when it comes to the net. However, let us show
these charlatans up and do the right thing at all times and give credit where
credit is due!
This
notice covers all pages, although, and I have done my best to ensure that all
photographs are duly credited and that this notice is displaced on each page,
that is, when a page is updated!
