Thank you for posting this. I sailed on her in the early 80’s when she was the Starward. Hate to see she was scrapped. :(

I sailed on the MS Bolero in 1975. Not sure if this is the same ship, but fond memories from the cruise. Entire senior class of Bettsville High School 1975 for our class trip! Cozumel, Mexico, Port-a-Prince Haiti were a couple of our stops. Super fun times!
