Additional NotesSister ship to SEAWAY PRINCE and completed a few months later. The decision to power both ships with gas turbines engines was a bold move and the great increase in fuel prices after they entered service made them completely un-economical. They were laid up in 1983 and never worked again. Last edited by: John Brown
