The GALAXY is shown as being registered in Cyprus as the port of Limassol was thus painted on her stern plus the name GALAXY ,though the previous name of BANASA was still on her bows.Sice she has been painted all white these have disappeared and her new name will be painted on later. Will be posting more info plus photos of this interesting vessel.regards

Hi Luca ,I hope to capture her in her new coat. It is a great transformation for a ship literally on her death bed to resurrect to a new role.
regards.

Well Nohab.there is a saying that says thus: "Putty and paint makes the devil a saint". Though I also say for this particular vessel after being saved from the cutting torch: "From the grave to the waves" regards.
