I believe that the reason why some of the other suitors didn't go after the SS Norway was because it was heavily altered over the past 20 years. Thus much of the SS France was lost and would have...

Hi John,

I have to strongly disagree with you regarding the maintenance and upkeep of the Norway during the years after Kloster left the company. During the 80's and 90's huge sums were spent on...
