thanks for your comments.
I have seen the Bulgarian ships but don't think I have a decent slide of one unfortunately.

Skanderbeg (or Skenderbeu) and Gjerg Kastrioti are the same names of the person - Albanian hero from middle ages. The names are in Albanian and Latin languages. I only wonder why they used two languastic versions at once as a name of the vessel.
