REINE MATHILDE

Nice looking vessel. What happened to her?

Alan

She was transferred to British Channel Island Ferries for a while in the early 90's and renamed Beauport. After that I'm not sure, but I think she was scrapped around 4-5 years ago at Alang.
Kind regards
Craig.

many thanks for that Craig.

The former Prince of Fundy (1966) on the 15 September 2005 arrived at Alang, India for beaching.

Scrapped 2005

The Prince of Fundy had an identical sister ship the St Patrick which was built in 1973 for Irish Continental Line operating between Rosslare and Le Havre. She was also coincidentally scrapped in India in 2005 arriving at Alang on the 08 June 2005.

They were both excellent vessels and very attractive ships. Beauport sailing with British Channel Island Ferries between 1991 and 1993 was one of my former vessels.
