Last Song for Black Prince

Today's update is a chance to let someone else do the talking.  Peter Knego has a fantastic blog on his Sea Treks page that chronicles the last voyage of Fred. Olsen's Black Prince.  The venerable (and unusual) ship is being withdrawn from service due to SOLAS 2010 regulations, though she has reportedly been sold to Venezuelan-based SAVECA for potential use as a floating hotel.

Read Peter's fascinating blog here.

Also check out Bart de Boer's fantastic ShipParade website for a great shot of Black Prince in the Photo of the Week section.
