I agree... ;-)

Stefan: a conversion back to a ferry is possible indeed (see what DFDS did with her sistership), but currently she is a cruise ship. Let's agree to disagree ;-)

Hi Ralph, Don't be mad: I can't agree with that. In my opinion, as seen on the pictures there only could be cabins without a window on the cardeck. As you can see on the recent deckplan by Star Cruises (http://www.starcruises.com/newweb/main/ebrochures.aspx) there are outside cabins on deck 5, which already have been on the Kalypso as in Ferry-Service by Viking Line. On Deck 4 and 3 are no cabins. So in my opinion a conversion back to the ferry-type is not a big problem. There certainly could be crew-cabins which are nowhere to find on public deckplans so than you, Ralph, would be right, but I don't think so.

Yes Stefan, I know that, but she was rebuilt as a cruise ship in the 90s and her car deck has been filled in with cabins. In addition, she is also used exclusively as a cruise ship.

Actually she's build as a Ferry. See the doors at the aft!

Ted, it's a cruise ship, not a ferry.
