In this episode we explore the historical cruise ship MV Astoria, which was the oldest deepwater sailing cruise ship before the pandemic. Since 2020 The Astoria is docked and its future uncertain.
The construction of this ship started in 1944 and commenced service in 1948 as the transatlantic ocean liner Stockholm. She was best known for an accidental collision with the ship Andrea Doria in July 1956, resulting in the sinking of the latter ship and 46 fatalities off the coast in Massachusetts, United States. During her seven decades of service she has passed through several owners and sailed under several names.

This was incredibly fascinating to see. Great video guys and thanks for documenting an iconic ship that will (probably) get scrapped.

[@HoJSimpson]

Why did I know I would find you in these comments lol?

[@Florida_Skies]

I agree, it’s very interesting to see how this ship is still around after 75 years even if it is pretty much abandoned

[@mileshigh1321]

She is in good enough shape it seems, but you can see mold appearing and a slow breakdown of the exterior, so any saving of it should be soon! Great explore!

[@cardy4ever]

Thank you for this unique experience. I would like to add that this ship is a great example of the incredible craftsmanship and quality of Swedish engineering. The ship was ordered in 1944, and launched on 9 September 1946, as Stockholm was built by the famous Götaverken in Gothenburg for the Swedish America Line (SAL). It is worth knowing that during the 1930s the Swedish Götaverken was the world's biggest shipyard by launched gross registered tonnage. It was founded in 1841 and went bankrupt in 1989. So the Astoria (Original name Stockholm) is not only important to the world as the oldest sailing cruise ship in the world it is also very important as it's the last ship still sailing hailing from the famous SAL line, Swedish American Line. So this ship is an important part of Swedish history. Sadly there aren't a lot of KZbinrs covering the SAL ships and their colorful history, perhaps this fantastic video could also contribute to this cause.

[@cardy4ever]

I would also like to add that the original SAL paint scheme was incredibly beautiful and would look great today as well. At some point after the delivery of the , SAL decided to abandon the traditional black hull colour and their entire fleet was repainted with white hulls

[@kay9549]

@@cardy4ever indeed such a beauty !! Well done SAL; Gothenburg shipbuilders. I looked into SAL beginnings; indeed the all white was a correct choice for her; accentuating her beautiful structure.

[@WthaHatchet]

The MV Astoria is the longest running Ocean Liner in history btw. Since 1948 she's sailed the seven seas. During her seven decades of service she has passed through several owners and sailed under the names Stockholm, Völkerfreundschaft, Volker, Fridtjof Nansen, Italia I, Italia Prima, Valtur Prima, Caribe, Athena, and Azores before beginning service as Astoria in March 2016. It's good to see her again and in quite good shape. Thanks again Bob! Such a fun look inside a pretty historical ship with a checkered past. Also not to be confused with the tragic demise of the vessel MS Estonia in 1994. Another very interesting maritime incident.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Thanks for checking and the additional info 🙏 next week an aircraft carrier.

@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath anytime my friend. I knew this ship the second I saw it from my childhood. Very cool. Cannot wait for next week as always but especially with a CVN type/style vessels!

Hi guys Thank you for amazing video. I get cry. I used to work on this ship with my wife in 1997 but was name "Italia Prima" as waiter in restaurant. Im still remember galley for crew and passenger. Our beautiful restaurant,it's nothing changes from 1997 Also in crew mess I had incident with some crew members. Crew bar aft of the ship was number 1 place where all crew must go after long day job. Thank you We was young on this time. I can't believe In still remember. Thank you

One more bull shitter. Or didn't I say, I worked on there too? With my cat my dog and my pet spider. Ship was called the magic garden then.

[@faniaria2090]

Thank you for this experience. Seeing what a laid up ship is like is pretty eye opening. Even fixing all that mold and the bug infestation would cost a fortune. Shame to see what became of her, but at this point I wonder if sentimental value alone can really help this ship. It is interesting to me how most things like shops and such have been emptied out, but you can still see some small private items of crew here and there. Like they had just left a bit ago.

Pity someone couldn't have saved the port visit plaques

Man this amazing. Thank you for all the risks you took so we can see. Glad we can see the ship, people need to see it. I have the highest respect for you guys. Gotta keep these things/places from fading away and becoming a distant memory.

As a Swede, I truly adore this ship (but she looked a lot better during her days as M/S Stockholm), we failed to save the M/S Kungsholm back in 2015 but I would love if we could restore Astoria to M/S Stockholm and let her stay in Gothenburg

It's an insurance liability to have anyone not employed by the company on board. I totally understand why they said no. Still glad they were able to get on the ship.

[@VonChoker]

thank you for documenting this, it's incredible and very eye opening. I think she would make a great candidate for a museum ship documenting Ocean liner history of the 2nd half of the 20th century

The MV Astoria is an amazing fascinating ship with a slightly infamous history. I hope that she is able to get a new lease on life in the future, she deserves to be saved

[@liamthespaceman]

No, not yet, but it is unfortunately likely@@johnrottler4000

[@kgmindustries8121]

While it is sad to be scrapped honestly at her age and utility it's not worth keeping her in service, it's too dangerous. Also few want to pay to keep her up as a floating museum.. i.e. even the SS United States isn't doing well in that state. Better to have a video like this to remember her by and she can either rest as an artificial reef, or help to build new buildings

Working in the ports of Stockholm, it’s always a delight whenever Astoria - ex Stockholm - comes to visit. I’d love to see her return to service, but given the state of her it may well be prohibitively expensive.

You guys should visit the Al-Fahad (Also known as Free Enterprise III) shipwreck, probably the most interesting one in the world (looks like something from a movie)!

[@crazyguy_1233]

Many believe she is being scrapped. This is not the case the owners themselves came out to say the rumors were false and the plan is to save her. She needs a refit but that was already planned. She has life left maybe not as a sailing vessel but she can become a hotel and restaurant.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Let’s hope so!😇

[@chrisdalby4140]

Fantastic, absolutely fantastic! We spent the last night on her in Poole 12/13 March 2020 (think about that date)! The last day she had passengers on! Gutted we didn’t get to Iceland and other ports of call on our cruise. Brilliant work you guys 👍

[@sarge6870]

At 75 years old and being in cold lay-up, what it would take to restore this ship as well as bring it up to code for passenger use is not probable. When a ship is in cold lay-up with no maintenance, the equipment will continue to corrode (note the water damage and rust) which is why it probably hasn't been able to sell. Just like an old car, you can continue to pump money into it yet things will still continue to break down. As a cruise enthusiast (14 cruises and counting) , I found this video to be very interesting and appreciate the work you did to get onboard and explore a ship that thrilled hundreds of thousands of passengers over her time!

[@CarlySmith001]

Technically everything below the waterline is 75 years old, everything else is from when they rebuilt her in 1994/1995

[@thetelegothika5327]

This is definitely one of those ships which its scrapping will be mourned in decades to come. We tend to only think about saving ships from a century ago yet we then scrap the particular vessels from our era which in a hundred years time could well become equally as historically important. No one thought to save the ocean liners from the 1900s and that's regretted a hundred years later. And that cycle is likely to repeat here. By 2099 there could well be very few examples of mid-20th to mid 21st century ships left. This ship is the longest serving liner in the world and was also involved in a serious collision with a famous liner, so lots of reasons for saving this specific ship.
