The original ship was built in 1963. When she was bought by certain owners in 1985 they decided to keep the engine room and superstructure but get rid of the other 2/3rds of the ship. It was discarded and a new forebody was built and attached to the older section.
very impressive
where is the sound ?
I was on a similar ship that sailed the Northern Marianas to Yokohama in the 80's
Fun job for a young man
Great video.
Seeing this makes me homesick.
How did they build the engine room and superstructure before the rest of the ship?
