So many dazzling, obscure ships and so little time....left for them, that is! Join Peter Knego on one of his most ambitious and fascinating ship safaris. Part One of the "By SHANGHAI To Shanghai" trilogy details four days of ship spotting in Victoria Harbor and Hong Kong's outer bay before he embarked on the final voyage of the SS SHANGHAI. If you like sleek but rusty old tubs, then the following names should read like a sculpted steel hit parade: SS SHANGHAI (ex BAUDOUINVILLE), MV ORIENT PRINCESS (YAO HUA), MV HENG LI (MARIPOSA), TONG HU (CIUDAD DE BUENOS AIRES), DONG HU (SANTA MARIA DE LA PAZ), JIN HU (GOTLAND), TIAN HU (VISBY), XING HU (WEST STAR), ZENITH (DUKE OF ARGYLL), NAN HU (KONG OLAV V), DELFIN STAR, SEABOURN PRIDE, ISLAND PRINCESS, and even a distant aerial of the wreck site of the SEAWISE UNIVERSITY (QUEEN ELIZABETH). All told in Peter Knego's offbeat narrative, free of words like "amazing" and "iconic". Hope you enjoy. If so, please hit "like", "subscribe" if you haven't already and please comment and share!
