The interior and deck images on this page, except for the one above and at the very bottom of the ship itself, were provided by Mr. Stan Evans from Newcastle Australia, who scanned them from a brochure. I am most grateful to him for providing these to me, for it prvides a m=far better insight to this remarkable ship. Stan Evan is a staunch supporter of ssMaritime and has contributed to many of its pages and provided countless images and photographs that he has personally taken. Thank you once again Stan!

friend Miss Diana Lee who was a well know New Zealand & Australia pop star!

The Cinema

Main Dining Room

Lido Pool with slippery slide, located aft

Sports Deck, with the entrance to the Lido pool slippery slide

Forward, but below the bridge was the Solarium deck and children’s pool

An inside two bedded cabin

An outside two berth cabin with a sofa, suitable as a child’s berth

A typical of the original four berth cabins, although there were many of newer cabins

which were all white and rather bland to say the least!

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!
