Without a doubt the Celebrity Equinox I know she is the second in her class but I had a great day aboard her during her inaugurals in Southampton and she is by far the best cruise ship I have been aboard and thats probably well over 30 I should think.

I do not think the the Celebrity Cruises 'Solstice' class vessels are very attractive externally but internally they deffiantly gets my vote :-)

As I am an "old ship" lover I vote for Hellas Liberty seen at Piraeus (not yet posted) on 10.5.2009.
But there were lots of more old pearls I saw on that cruise trip in spring like Savarona, Kristina Regina, 3 tankers with bridge midships and several beautiful old bulkers.

Interesting question Ramiz.... not surprised you came up with a VLCC...my favourite would be a Hyundai design one.  Athenian Victory or the eight NSCSA ones like Sahba/Layla/ Ghazal jump out. . A last look at the superb looking Knock Nevis in November (now at the breakers)  perhaps, or a threequarter aft bridge 29 year old   freighter like the North Korean Am Nok Gang, seen Singapore in October.   My son likes Car Carriers most of all...reckons they are imposing... so beauty is in the eye of the beholder!!  

Cheers, Ron

I agree Ron, the new NSCSA VLCCs do look very nice and especially with the loop style wings. Hopefully I will see one when I go to sea.
Sadly I havent seen the Knock Nevis and never will.
