Peter Knego digs back into his archives to bring you this latest Sailing Day video, taken at Los Angeles on 21 April 1995 and featuring @princesscruises SS FAIR PRINCESS on what was supposed to be her final departure from L.A. FAIR PRINCESS was built in 1957 for @CunardLineOfficial Line as the CARINTHIA and rebuilt in 1971 for Sitmar Cruises as the popular cruise ship FAIRSEA. When Sitmar was bought by Princess, she became the FAIR PRINCESS in 1988 and was supposed to become the REGENT ISLE for Regency Cruises a few months after this footage was shot but different things happened, as explained in the video. She was scrapped at Alang in 2005/6. Following FAIR PRINCESS was @RoyalCaribbean VIKING SERENADE, a somewhat ungainly ship that ran the line's 3 and 4 night party cruises to Mexico. VIKING SERENADE was built in 1982 as the failed cruise ferry SCANDINAVIA, then became Admiral Cruises STARDANCER before joining the Royal Caribbean fleet in 1990. After her Royal Caribbean career she became the ISLAND ESCAPE and went to the breakers in 2018 after use as a floating accommodation ship called OCEAN GLORY.
