Imagine an operator of a VTS shore station , pilot station or any other station , trying to call this ship over the radio .
Shipowners in the countries of the communist bloc competed in giving ships names that were unpronounceable by foreigners. I remember the situation with the ship on which I worked and the operator of the SALERNO Harbor Master's Office. The ship was named KOPALNIA MOSZCZENICA. After many attempts to pronounce the second part of the name, she gave up. We have been called KOPULONIA.

Hahaha...I would love to hear harbor control call the vessel on the VHF with that ridiculous name!! Leave it to SCI to mess these things up.
