Ships

Very few ships produced at the old shipyard are still in service:

  • One of the few is MV Freewinds, the floating "university" of the Church of Scientology.
  • In 1975—76 Wärtsilä delivered five Belorussiya class cruiseferries to the Soviet Union. All of them are still in service.

Famous quotes containing the word ships:

    I have seen old ships sail like swans asleep
    James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)

    Shuttles in the rocking loom of history,
    the dark ships move, the dark ships move,
    their bright ironical names
    like jests of kindness on a murderer’s mouth;
    Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)

    I saw three ships come sailing by,
    Come sailing by, come sailing by,
    I saw three ships come sailing by,
    On Christmas Day in the morning.
    —Unknown. As I Sat on a Sunny Bank. . .

    Oxford Book of Light Verse, The. W. H. Auden, ed. (1938)
