Thanks René. Before Greek flag, she flew Swedish flag, owned by Svenske Lloyd 1945-1970. Built as Yard no 569 at Gøtaverken AB, Gothenburg. Dimensions: 113,19 x 15,27 x 6,32 meters. Engine: 6 cyl. Gøtaverken diesel, 2.675 HP, speed 13 13 knots. Arrived to Split (in today Croatia) 1979 for bu.

The ship's name is very appropriate for this excellent picture. Typical Gotaverken.

Thanks for all the nice comments. The ship was flying the Greek flag. It can be seen partly on the stern. Miramar says owned by Bright Sun Maritime Corp. Built at Gothenburg, Sweden.

Great shot of the Golden age

Ship, lighting, composition - there is almost nothing to improve in this picture.
Chapeau,
Stefan

Very nice ship and picture, taken abt 9 ys before her bu. She was built as "Scandinavia". Anyone can state her owner and nationality at that time? If she was delievered i 1945, she must have been ordered and building startet during WWII.

When I came here for my daily meal of ships, the first second the page loaded this pic caught my eyes right away! Simply wonderful ship & colors!

Regards!

Fabulous photo and scan

And her Name is utterly appropriate on this magnificent photograph !

Merci René, superbe photo et beau cargo. Les couleurs sont presque irréelles.

Very nice indeed and a well proportioned ship to boot.

Nice photo. Great looking bridge/accomodation design. Lovely ship...!
