The Carnival mates ORIANA and COSTA CONCORDIA seen berthed at the harbour of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, one year ago on the 2nd January 2011.
A meeting that could not be seen again, the 112,000 GT Costa cruise liner impressed the World recently for the negative, after colliding with some nearby underwater rocks parcially sinking the ship by starboard near the island of Giglio, off the Toscani coast, Italy on a much unfortunate Friday the 13th.
In some way it proves that a disaster of this size can happen even with modern cruise ships whenever they decide to improve the SOLAS regulations. I've always knowned, "Better to be safe than sorry".Photos by Antonio Saez-Tenerife.
"As with her cherished namesake and her sister the sacred CANBERRA, old acquaintance will be more than enough to ensure that whenever the great ships of Britain are brought to mind, another ORIANA shall now never be forgot."
