Former freighter with exhibitions and cuisine on board |
Überseebrücke Hamburg, Hamburg 20459 +49 (0)40 36 4209 http://www.capsandiego.de |
The elegant freighter Cap San Diego dropped its anchor for good next to Rickmer Rickmers at its home port's Überseebrücke in 1986. After 120 journeys to South America and two new owners, the fast ship with a capacity of 103,000 tons almost went into the blast furnace, but the Hamburg Senate decided to keep it and turn it into a museum ship. So the White Swan of the South Atlantic, which was built for the Hamburg-Süd shipping company in 1961 and is still seaworthy, is now open to the general public. You can go on one of the daily tours, but there are also additional changing exhibitions, events and cuisine on board. Review © 2009, Wcities |
