Interesting enough, in 1962 the captain of USS Independence declared the Amerigo Vespucci "the most beautiful ship in the world" while the two ships went by in the Mediterranean sea. In 2022, after 60 years, it was the USS George Bush that crossed the route with Amerigo Vespucci and its captain renewed the title: "After 60 years your are still the most beautiful ship in the world!".

If you would have taken a couple of minutes to show how the ship looks like from the outside, it would have been easy for the audience to understand why it is considered the most beautiful ship in the world.

If you have the chance, go see her on board. But it's even more beautiful to see her while sailing with her sails unfolded. I am Italian, I visited it, a few years ago, at the port of Civitavecchia, near Rome where I live.

It's interesting to know that The "Amerigo Vespucci" was designed in 1930 by engineer Francesco Rotundi, lieutenant colonel of the Naval Engineers and director of the Royal Shipyards of Castellammare di Stabia (near Naples), taking up the designs of the sailing ship "Monarca", the flagship of the Royal Navy of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.

Cristoforo Colombo discovered it (maybe some Indians discovered America before him, but it’s thanks to Colombo that USA exists, he said to Europeans that there was a land over the ocean and the immigration started. Without him, there wouldn’t be any USA) Amerigo Vespucci named it, Giovanni da Verrazzano discovered New York Bay… let’s say it’s an Italian affair. 🇮🇹🇺🇸🇮🇹🇺🇸🇮🇹🇺🇸🇮🇹🇺🇸

Btw, Amerigo Vespucci I believe is the namesake for the continent called "America". Not for the United States as many use it interchangeably

[@Danielreds]

It's called America because it takes its name from Amerigo. An Italian discovered it, another gave it its name, let's say that America is an Italian affair

[@adeliomoro2069]

​@@Danielreds Discovered? The natives knew they were there

[@giovannimoriggi5833]

​@@Danielreds The name America was given by a German referring to Amerigo, but absolutely not by Amerigo Vespucci itself, who was still the first to realize that continent was not Asia. And Cristoforo Colombo was working for the Spanish Royals.

There was a twin ship, named Colombo. It was given to the USSR after WW2 as a reparation to the winning countries. After using it as a training ship, just like the Amerigo, the USSR did not carry out maintenance, transformed it into a merchant ship to transport wood, which eventially caught fire, damaging the ship for good. It was demolished around the 70's

[@riccardomallardo7779]

The Colombo also had a painting on boars of Columbus landing in Salvador, the night before the ship got delivered to the ussr a bunch of italian navy veterans sneaked on board and stole it, now it's on the Vespucci snd it's the only thing left of the Colombo

The Amerigo Vespucci came with a sister ship, the "Cristoforo Colombo". Unfortunately the latter was handed over to the Soviet Union as part of the war reparations demanded by the 1947 Paris Peace Treaty and those useless people managed to total her

Beautiful piece of art. Pity Stalin requested the sister of the Amerigo Vespucci, the Cristoforo Colombo as reparation. The soviets had no usage for it, they ended up using it like a barge to carry wood logs, before to scrap it in one of the shipyards in nowaday Ukraine.
