Such a beautiful vessel, the good old Mariella. She must have been takeen good care of at Viking Line. She's 38 years old, but looks very well maintained. I even think she still looks modern, after all these years.

Thank you for your comment! You're absolutely right, the MEGA REGINA indeed stands as a testament to excellent maintenance and timeless design. Despite her age, she remains a stunning example of maritime engineering. The fact that she still looks modern is a tribute to the enduring quality of the shipbuilders and the crews who have lovingly maintained her over the years.

This whole ship exudes high quality. I remember so well when the public was allowed to go on a tour on board when she lay with the flagpole up at Stadsgårdkajen. Together with M/S Olympia and Siljas M/S Finlandia and M/S Silvia Regina they formed a quartet that was far, far ahead of its time / Adam

Having sailed on her sister ship when she operated with P&O on their Bilbao and Cherbourg routes, I remember how impressive she was. At the time (mid-90s), I'd managed to get permission from P&O for a bridge and engine room visit which was amazing. The view from her very tall bridge position was breathtaking coming into the Solent for the approach to Portsmouth - something I'll never forget. Still, even in 2023, these vessels are huge and lovely looking ships. Lovely to see some action from one of my favourite islands in the Mediterranean. My last trip from Corsica to the mainland were on SNCM's Esterel (now sadly broken up).

Thank you so much for sharing your personal experience and fond memories with us! It's always fascinating to hear from others who have had the privilege to experience these incredible vessels in their own unique ways. The MEGA REGINA and her sister ship indeed carry an impressive history, and your recollection of the breathtaking view from the bridge coming into the Solent is something we can only imagine. These vessels continue to inspire and create lasting memories for many of us. Isn't Corsica just wonderful? It's genuinely one of the Mediterranean's jewels. Thank you once again for your comment! 😀👌

Hallo Carsten, wie gewohnt fantastische Aufnahmen eines tollen Schiffs. Insbesondere im Sonnenlicht kommt die frühere Mariella richtig zur Geltung. Daumen hoch! Danke für's Zeigen und ganz liebe Grüße aus Berlin.

Wonderful video as usual… it feels always to be onboard but from home 😅. I was recently onboard Gabriella and it seems there are some details in public areas, cabin corridors, stairs and lights kept from her previous adventure in Viking Line. Best regards!

@JustFerries Жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for your kind words! It's a pleasure to bring the onboard experience to you, right from the comfort of your home. 😊 It's quite fascinating to see some preserved elements from her Viking Line days on Gabriella, isn't it? It indeed adds a touch of nostalgia and continuity to her journey. Stay tuned for more seafaring adventures on JustFerries! Best regards back to you! 🛳️🌊

Ex-Mariella. Easy to see her Swedish-Finnish ice class 1A Super by observing her propeller water. No need for that in the Mediterranean though:-) But we miss her in the Northern Baltic. Damn the Covid shit witch forced the Viking Line to sell her!!!

@JustFerries Жыл бұрын

Thanks for your feedback!

@calculus77 Жыл бұрын

An interesting observation of the propeller water. 🧐Do you mean that there is visually less white, foamy water but deeper and maybe longer turbulence with the 1A Super ice class? I've only been on TallinkSilja and Viking Line ferries, so I really don't have a point of reference. 🤔

@JustFerries Жыл бұрын

The prop wash, or the wake left by the propeller, can indeed vary based on the type of propeller and the ice class of the ship. The 1A Super ice class could lead to different turbulence patterns in the water. However, the differences might not be very noticeable unless you're specifically looking for them. The differences you're observing could be due to a variety of factors, including but not limited to the ship's load, and the water conditions.

I can understand with the length of time taken for each crossing, why there's just the one crossing a day in each direction. But still, its good that there is a regular ferry service and the vessels are well maintained and equipped. The staff do a real good job.👏🤝

Fantastic upload ! Corsica looks like an amazing place, never been there. Just sailed passed it with cruise ships. Miss ex Mariella alot here in the Baltic seas, her big chimney is majestic too see from distance. Hope you enjoyed the stay on her! Viking Cinderella will sail the Stockholm - Helsinki/Tallinn route in July if you get the chance :)

@JustFerries Жыл бұрын

Thank you for the kind words! Corsica truly is a gem, and its beauty is worth experiencing firsthand. MEGA REGINA definitely has an imposing presence with her iconic funnel, and I can understand why she's missed in the Baltic Sea. The stay onboard was indeed enjoyable and memorable. Hopefully, you'll get a chance to visit Corsica soon and perhaps even experience a ferry passage. Keep following JustFerries! for more maritime adventures! And July... far away from the Baltic Sea but thanks for the info 😉🚢🌊

Great video to watch! Corsica and Sardinia are my favourite behind Greece. I hope to visit again. The price of food is a bit steep! Works out AUD$40 for for your lunch. Only on holiday would you pay such an outrageous price. 😂

@JustFerries Жыл бұрын

Thanks for your kind words, Mitchel! Corsica and Sardinia are indeed beautiful destinations, not to mention Greece. As for the food prices, I have to agree with you. However, I chose to splurge a bit on the meal just for the sake of showcasing it in the video, ha ha 😉. After all, every once in a while, a little indulgence on holiday isn't too bad. Looking forward to sharing more adventures with you! Canada will come soon (first video 09.07.2023).

I gotta say I much prefer BC Ferries when it comes to onloading and offloading - these European ferries are somewhat confusing to board at times with lots of backing up and circling around, etc.
