I would prefer that in relation to Polish shipyards (YES!!! there used to be production shipyards in our beautiful country, and not only the big ones) to use names appropriate for the period of activity. This ship was not built in some (never existent) shipyard
NEW SHIPYARD SZCZECIN ... It was established in the Adolf Warski SHIPYARD in Szczecin ... Yes, after the collapse of the Warski Shipyard, NOWA STOCZNIA SZCZECIŃSKA (as part of Porta Holding S.A.) was established (October 19, 2001), but its life ended with liquidation on December 30, 2008 . It had so much in common with its collapsed predecessor that it operated in the same area and dealt with shipbuilding. Currently, attempts are being made to restore ship production on the grounds and base of the former A. Warski Shipyard, the company has returned to its pre-war name WULKAN.
I perfectly understand that for shiplovers from outside Poland, all our shipyards can be put into one bag, mixed and thrown into a garbage container. For me, as a graduate of a high school and a university with a shipbuilding profile, an ex-worker of the shipyard and
For a retired seaman correct naming is important. I have always been annoyed by the ignorance of foreign ship officers who entered the port of destination Stettin instead of Szczecin or Danzig instead of Gdansk in the AIS system. It's like little things, but they matter.
At least for some of us...
