Hi Jadran, if the GREAT AMBITION Imo.9187746 I dont think that it will even be around in another 85 months the way ships are being treated.Many are being scrapped after a few years of service.The life span of todays ships has been shortened considerably due to economics.
I cannot see her as a massive museum ship,more as a beached behemoth awaiting scrapping on some Indian beach.

person

Good evening Emmanuel, don't worry!
My entire comment was focused only on one word & is actually a 'play' using the word: GREAT.
In any case, nothing else was meant moreover.
Kind regards/Jadran

PS
By the way, "GREAT AMBITION" is a Panamax size bulk carrier built 1999 (photo can be seen on this site).

person

Hi Jadran.could you please explain your comment re"GREAT AMBITION"?

person

'I presume that maybe the great "GREAT AMBITION" will still look great!'

person

An 85 year old vessel and still looks magnificent.does anyone think that 85 years from now any ship built to-day will still look great?

person

How wonderful this classic tall ship looks in the grand harbour! mrdot.
