  • Michelangelo - Transatlantic Passenger Liner/Cruise Ship 45911 grt / 1965 blt / Italy / 5234113 At Tilbury Landing Stage - 2.8.1974 Don Smith Collection Notes:-
    The SS Michelangelo was a luxurious Italian ocean liner built in 1965 for the Italian Line's transatlantic service.
    Despite being a marvel of Italian engineering and design, the ship had a short and ill-fated career. 
    Construction: The ship was built by Ansaldo Shipyards in Genoa, and its hull design was meant to be both modern and fast.
    Funnels: The Michelangelo had distinctive latticed funnels topped with large fins. This innovative, wind-tunnel-tested design was intended to keep smoke away from the passenger decks, and it proved to be highly effective. Interiors: The liner's interiors were stylish and modern, decorated in an Art Deco style by renowned Italian architects. Notable features included a 489-seat cinema, a variety of public lounges, and multiple swimming pools. Sister ship: The Michelangelo was built alongside an identical sister ship, the SS Raffaello, which was constructed in a different Italian shipyard. The two ships were among the last great transatlantic liners ever built.  End of service: After just ten years in service, the Michelangelo was laid up in 1975, having never turned a profit. Sold to Iran: In 1977, the Shah of Iran purchased the Michelangelo and the Raffaello to be used as floating military barracks. The ships, which originally cost $45 million each, were sold for just $2 million apiece. Scrapped: After the Iranian revolution, the ship deteriorated. Plans to convert it into a luxury cruise ship never materialized. The SS Michelangelo was ultimately sold for scrap and dismantled in Pakistan in 1991.
