The four “Port of Elizabeth Class”
Liners were sold in 1971 to Michael A. Karageorgis, Piraeus
in 1971. The City Of Exeter
and City
of York
were rebuilt to become the Mediterranean Sea and Mediterranean Sky
respectively, and served as ferries between Patras - Brindisi and Ancona
(with variations). The City of Port
Elizabeth and City of Durban
were to be rebuilt into luxury cruise ships, However,
this never eventuated. Both remained laid up in Eleusus Bay,
Greece.
The City Of Exeter
was renamed Mediterranean
Island,
later Mediterranean Sun, and the City of Durban
became the Mediterranean Dolphin. Both were never rebuilt and eventually broken
up.

Photographs on ssmaritime and associate pages are by the author
or from the author’s private collection. In addition
there are some images that have been provided by Shipping Companies and private
photographers or collectors. Credit is given to all contributors. However,
there are some photographs provided to me without details regarding the
photographer/owner concerned. I hereby invite if owners of these images would
be so kind to make them-selves known to me (my email address may be found on www.ssmaritime.com
only), in order that due credit may be given. I know what it is like, I have
seen a multitude of my own photographs on other sites, yet these individuals
either refuse to provide credit or remove them when asked, knowing full well
that there is no legal comeback when it comes to the net. However, let us show
these charlatans up and do the right thing at all times and give credit where
credit is due!
This
notice covers all pages, although, and I have done my best to ensure that all
photographs are duly credited and that this notice is displaced on each page, that
is, when a page is updated!
