Champion Polar & Champion Arctic ex Palva & Tervi

[Jesper T Andersen]

Hi.

Found out today that two of my favorite tankers has left the blue ocean, and gone to the Gadani Beach (

Does enyone have photos of them from the time before the end, and is there eny one who has sailed on them and have some photos from inside. Tervi was the first ship i ever took a photo of back in 1994 here in Fredericia.
Would be very happy to get in contact with some one who can tell me more history about then, will make a memory place on my website later on.
Champion Arctic (ex-Tervi). IMO 8402333
Champion Polar (ex-Palva) IMO 8414570

R.I.P.

Best regards
