Gammel Norges-færge forlist ud for Vietnam

Færgens Jupiter sejlede krydstogter for det vietnamesiske Jupiter Cruises, men tidligere fragtede den danskere til Oslo som “King of Scandinavia” for DFDS fra 1989 til 1994. Nu er den forlist ud for Vietnams kyst under orkanen Damrey i starten af november.

Færgen blev bygget i på et skibsværft i Nantes i Frankrig i 1974 for Silja Line og blev indsat som Wellamo mellem Helsinki og Stockholm. I 1981 blev den købt af DFDS, der indsatte den som Englands-færge på Esbjerg-Newcastle under navn et Dana Gloria.

I 1988-89 blev færgen forlænget med 22, 3 meter på Meyer Werft I Papenburg og indsats som King of Scandinavia på København-Oslo ruten.

Færgen blev i 1994 solgt til Color Line og i 1998 solgt videre til Fjord Line.

I 2007 blev skibet solgt til Royal Group i Hong Kong og blev indsat på krydstogter omkring Cambodia og Vietnam.
