These ships were tailor designed for West Africa which used to be the main Delmas trade area for over a century. Regarding the previous serie (Nathalie and sisters) if i recall correcely the storage area below the accomodation was used to load saw timber. I was working in west Africa at the time Veronique Delmas was sold to breakers and received some photos of the the two sisters after beaching. If you are interested, let me know.

Jadran, this serie (Veronique, Ursula, Yolande Delmas and Etienne Denis) were fitted with the "place du village concept", it was aimed to ensure crew members would socialise instead of being isolated in their respective cabins. The swimming pool was indoor at the centre of the "place du village". This concept was initiated on the previous serie (Nathalie, Patricia, Renee and Suzanne Delmas) which were also delivered by Chantiers de l'Atlantique.

French designed ships often have a distinctive style about them!

Actually, the Delmas fleet consisted of all very, very nice ships, in general.
Superb photo, Mike, of this indeed *special looking and eye-catching* Delmas ship; thank you very much for sharing this wonderful photograph!
Kind regards /Jadran
