CONDITION -- Good
HISTORY -- One of three contemporary well known British cruise ships, Andes, Caronia and Reina del Mar, Andes can be regarded as one of the finest passenger ships of her time. Andes could compete with Cunard's famous Caronia of 1949 in terms of luxury and service. Originally, she had been built to the highest standards, as Royal Mail intended her to be the finest ship ever on the Latin American run. Andes was ordered from the famous Harland & Wolff shipyard at Belfast.
