CAP SAN DIEGO in Hamburg





The beautiful German museum ship CAP SAN DIEGO photographed in Hamburg on 27 September 2008.
A state of the art fast general cargo liner built in Hamburg in 1961-1962, for Hamburg Sud Europe - South America service she was rescued by the City of Hamburg which purchased the ship when she was about to be sold for scrap.
She was restored to her former glory and is in perfect technical conditions, operating both as a static museum and as a cruise ship in German waters.

Já tive próximo desse navio e o melhor é que apenas a 50 metros na proa desse barco está o Rickmer Rickmersm que possui um museu no seu interior com fotos de todos os comandantes portugueses, bandeiras nacionais, do então navio escola Sagres.

Um grande abraço e parabéns por este site que é fantástico
