Thanks Peter, nicely put in perspective.

@ Pieter: Yes, good looking, but all six ships of this class where technically big troublemakers. Hamburg-Süd had plenty of problems with the 1.250 kVA shaft generators of british manufacturing (!) for cooling e-power. A Hamburg port-saying was: "Our berths are black with white ships." or "Polar - right back." (Polar? Gleich wieder da!). Ships where only 10 years in service for Hamburg-Süd and then sold to Liberia and all ships broken up in the 80s/90s. Not everything that looks good was good...
Regards Peter
