Princess Danae at Harwich
22nd May 1999
 
Princess Danae was originally built in 1955 as the cargo liner Port Melbourne for Port Line. Sold in 1972 and renamed Therissos Express. She was converted to a cruise ship in 1976 and renamed Danae. Costa took her on charter in 1979, and bought her in 1985. She was badly damaged by fire at Venice in 1991, reappearing as Starlight Princess then Baltica before being sold to Arcalia Shiping (who also own Funchal) and renamed Princess Danae in 1996.
 
These photos were taken by Ian Boyle on 22nd May 1999, when Princess Danae left on a cruise to the Norwegian fjords. She is under charter to UK travel firm Travelsphere, and wears their funnel banner.
