History
This ship was built in 1961 by Uljanik at their yard in Pula, Yugoslavia with the yard number 237. Constructed for Companhia de Navegação Costeira, and originally called Anna Nery, the vessel was launched on 5 November 1961 and completed in September 1962.Шаблон:Sfn The vessel was registered in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and delivered to Santos in October.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Not long after entering service, the ship suffered a boiler explosion. Anna Nery was further damaged in a collision with the tanker Presidente Deodoro in October 1963 off Haifa, Israel.Шаблон:Sfn Anna Nery was out of service for nearly a year following the collision.[2] Between 1965 and 1968 the ship was used on the route between Rio de Janeiro and Santos. After that Anna Nery was used on coastal services, transatlantic services and as a cruise ship during the summer months.Шаблон:Sfn In 1967, ownership of the vessel was transferred to Lloyd Brasileiro.Шаблон:Sfn
Decline in the passenger liner business caused Anna Nery to be taken out of service in 1978 until its sale to Kavolines Corp SA and was operated by the Greek Mediterranean cruise company Hellenic Cruises beginning that year. The vessel was re-registered to Piraeus, Greece and during refits and modifications, Anna Nery was briefly renamed Danaos (1978) and then Constellation (1978).Шаблон:Sfn In 1983, the ship was sailing between Piraeus and Durban, South Africa.[3] Refit extensively, the ship later sailed between St. Petersburg, Florida and Mexico and St. Petersburg and Alaska.Шаблон:Sfn In 1987 the cruise company operating the ship went bankrupt and Constellation went out of service for four years. The ship was taken over by the Hellenic Industrial Development Bank SA in 1988.Шаблон:Sfn
In 1992, the ship was again purchased by another Greek owner and again renamed, this time to Morning Star. It was put into cruise service in the Pacific. It was eventually renamed Regency Spirit, registered in Nassau, Bahamas and passed to the American company Regency Cruises where it served on the Mexican coast during the winter and the Mediterranean during the summer. In 1995, Regency Cruises filed for bankruptcy protection, and Regency Spirit was seized in Nice. The ship was auctioned off to the Cypriot Salamis Cruises in 1996, and renamed Salamis Glory.
Шаблон:Wikinews On 30 August 2007, Salamis Glory was involved in a collision with the small cargo ship Шаблон:Ship near the Israeli port of Haifa. As a result of the accident, the cargo ship sunk immediately and two crewmen died.[4]
