I just did some research. She had been laid up during the past few years after her life as a casino ship somehow came to a halt. Interestingly the site is still up:
http://www.jimei.com.hk/html/en_US/01/hongkong/01/261_1301263150.html
But the site hasn't been updated since 2011. Then at the end of July 2018 she sailed away on own power. Last position I could find was on 2nd of august 2018 anchored near what looks like a dry dock. Crossing my fingers this beautiful and elegant ship will get a new life once again. Been on her in 1977. She already looked wonderfully classic back then!

I think "JiMei" looks very original as the 1966-built "Prinsesse Ragnhild", put into service between Oslo, Norway - Kiel, Germany. But the Shipping Company built their next "Prinsesse Ragnhild" in 1981. Her IMO is 7904891.

Beautiful classic design, even the funnel is done perfectly to match the rest of the ship!
Great post, Clive!

Kind regards!
