Be assured that I am NOT associated with any shipping or cruise companies or any travel/cruise agencies or any other organisations! Although the author has been in the passenger shipping industry since 1960, although is now retired but having written on well over 700 Classic Liners, humble Migrant Liners and Cargo-Passengers Ships I trust these will continue to provide classic ship enthusiasts the information they are seeking, but above all a great deal of pleasure!

Premier Cruises postcard of SS The Big Red Boat II

Authors private collection

 

Although her red hull looking rather faded, internally she was in excellent condition

 

With the Bridge looking so spotless and well maintained it looked like she was ready to sail

 

Looking toward the Bridge

 

Aft decks and pool

 

Promenade deck looked like it was awaiting passengers to board, but they never came

 

Looking at her internal photographs whilst she was in Freeport it would

make you cry knowing that her next stop was a toxic laden beach in India

 

One of her excellent cabins

 

Now named SS Big Red, she is seen bunkering in the Azores on April 15
