Moby Vincent

Moby Vincent ferry, IMO 7360605, port of Livorno
The “Moby Vincent” is one of the oldest ferries in service between Livorno and Bastia: she was built at the Rickmers shipyard in Bremerhaven, Germany, and launched in 1974 as “Stena Normandica”.
Moby Vincent ferry, IMO 7360605, port of Livorno
The ferry, like many other born up there, got tired of the cold Northern seas and in 1990 migrated to the Mediterranean. Renamed “Moby Vincent”, she began to ply the route between Corsica and Italy.

    I don't blame Moby Vincent. I would prefer the warmer weather, too.

    She is looking might fine for an old ship. (well, I don't know, is that considered old for a ferry?)
