Description:

Sitmar's popular passenger liner "Fairstar" arrives at Adelaide's Outer Harbor 18 January 1968. Fifty-one years ago to the day....Happy Birthday pic for y'all!
Just a note: She was swung adjacent to her berth with the stern at one time almost overhanging the wharf - A very beautifully-uniformed Italian junior officer was having an animated conversation on his two-way radio at the time.

In 1968 she was still doing liner voyages with the odd cruise. She started full time cruising ex Sydney in 1974.
