Bad luck for the Mairitime Lady. She was only re-named on the same day (according to equasis). She is the former Sea Ems.

Correction: The first vessel was ARCTIC OCEAN not ARCTIC FOX. Wrong information of local radio station.

Hello Karbine!

I fear that our newspaper had this photo only for one day on their site. Here I found another site with even better informations. But I can't say how long this story inclusive photos will stay there. Try this one

http://www1.ndr.de/ndr_pages_std/0,2570,OID2072410,00.html

It's a mess! I tried this one I got the message "Side not found". But no problem. Click on the button "REGIONAL" and a side opens where you can see the article. Click on the photo and you'll get the whole story.
