M S FUNCHAL THE REBUILDING OF A GEM




The m.s. FUNCHAL has been in Lisbon for months undergoing a refit that would bring the ship a new lease of life for the years to come, the vessel is 50 years old this year and prospects are she will continue to fulfil the delights of all ships enthusiasts, she was strongly built and cheap to run and most importantly she is in good hands, I was recently in Lisbon and had the opportunity to take a few photos here included, in the meantime to marvel with what´s coming for this beautiful classic ship please visit Luis Miguel Correia´s blog
