Interesting "wreck report" on www.plimsoll.org
Quite scary - even after all these years - to read how a disaster is building up on the bridge.

Looking at her 'as built' photos presented on the Google pages, I recognized that MAGDALENA was actually an extremely good looking ship...the one that could be top admired!

Hi Jadran!
The "Magdalena" had a splitted Deckhouse. She broke in two behind the wheelhouse part just in front of the accommodation part.
Brgds,
Stefan

Hi to everybody!
I wonder & keep wondering, but can not find an appropriate answer to my query: How did all these different sections of accommodation (5-off white sections with windows) come together in the cross-section of the ship (??) which is moreover without her bow part.
Does anybody have a trusty precise answer?
