Nevertheless, she is still alive and she still sails under her first name! If you want to know more, please check out the following website. Unfortunately it's only in German but with lots of pictures and with the curriculum vitae of every so-called Typ-Schiff: www.elbdampfer-hamburg.de

Ready for the dangerous rough sea :-)

I am a little envious. You have seen the beautiful HADAGs in ride.
Bergedorf, great!

On their berth, they are mostly obstructed.
And real shame, that some sisters are dead today. :(

But the memory lives forever. Many thanks Jens for the nice photos.
Best regards, Marcus

Thank you, Marcus. I like them, too.

I suppose the windows were closed for her delivery voyage across the Baltic Sea in case of rough weather. Hamburg - St. Petersburg is quite a voyage for such a small ship...

In fact it took me almost 5 years and 3 months to realize that I made this photo while she was leaving Hamburg for good.

Cheers,
Jens
