Although the author has worked and been involved in the passenger shipping industry for well over 60 years, but due to his old age and poor health, he was forced to retire. Yet, he has completed well over 1,435 Classic Liners, Passenger-Cargo Liners as well as humble converted C3 converted Migrant Liners, which has transported countless thousands of folk to the new world, as well on vacations’. Amazingly, ssmaritime.com has received 573.4 million visitors to date I trust the features online will continue to provide Classic Liner and Ship enthusiasts both the information they are seeking, but more so provide a great deal of pleasure and relive many happy memories!

M.S. Tjiwangi was the first of an identical pair of ships to enter service

RIL 1960 Deck Plan

 

This page contains a delightful 1960 deck plan distributed by Royal Interocean Lines in 1960. It only contains artist’s impressions of her facilities, as well as her cabin plan and her First Class public facilities. Sadly it does not show the Second Class lounges, etc. In 1962 and 1963 both ships were extensively renovated and were fully ait-conditioned and more cabins received private facilities. In addition a new Tourist Class Lounge was built on the starboard side of Promenade Deck the Verandah Lounge, the smaller equivalent of the First Class Wintergarden. It certainly made these delightful ships even better that they already were!

I will commence with the cover and the images, then the actual Deck plan at the bottom.
