For those of you have ever wondered about the prevous lives of the ship you have been sailing on, Pam has been gracious enough to tackle an update of our Former Ship Names list. A new version with the current and former names of 336 ships is now available here.

Great job Pam. Thank you.

Pam the list is a brilliant labour of love - but if we notice any omissions are we allowed to point them out?

Of course, errors, omissions, amendments, just send me a msg, I am sure there are some. The scrapped list at the bottom, is purely those ships which had previously been in the list and have now gone. There are some missing there, but one couldn't compile a list of all scrapped ships, it would go on forever, but if there's a specific one you want in there, tell me.

However, I am off to Barcelona at some unearthly hour of the morning for a Med jaunt, and won't be back online much until mid August; so gives you plenty of time to pick out all the errors

Saludos

It's amazing just how much movement there is.

I've never sailed with MSC but I have cruised on Rhapsody.
I've never sailed with NCL but I have cruised on Norwegian Crown and Norwegian Dynasty.
I've never sailed with Saga but I have cruised on Saga Rose and Saga Ruby.
I've never sailed with Fred Olsen but I have cruised on Black Prince and Braemar.
I've never sailed with Crown but I have cruised on Crown Majesty.
I've never sailed with Seabourn but I have cruised on Seabourn Sun
I've never sailed with HAL but I have cruised on Prinsendam.
I've never sailed with Sea Dream but I have cruised on Sea Dream II.

Makes you think.

Well done, Pam.

You must have spent days on that. All these former names. I had no idea there were so many. No wonder I get confused. LOL!

Most ships last longer than many of the cruise lines!
