Clive, vandalism to ships/cruise ships by ugly painting is not a new thing. For a look of the original DFDS-painting see: www.kwmosgaard.dk/ferries/hansbroge_1939.htm

I can just about cope with the yellow funnel but the clouds on the funnel are just too much! On the other hand, what a lovely ship. The unexpected discovery that someone has posted such great pictures of such an interesting and handsome old ship such as this it what makes this site worthwhile. Thank you.

Oh, in that case, ignore the patriotic bit! But then again, the Åland Islanders can never make up their minds whether they are Finnish or Swedish..... !

Cheers Rick, I think she was actually Cyprus flagged at the time
