I was on the last transatlantic crossing and it was so wonderful I had been on several other cruises on the Norway as well so sad that she could not have been saved there are no comparison’s with the modern ships today a true classic in every way
I've taken one cruise in my life and that was on the Norway in 1991,the highlight of the cruise is when I went to the top deck of the ship between the funnels and watched the night sky,it was an incredible experience.
Comment peux on ne pas avoir le coeur serré quand on est un amoureux de ce magnifique bateau, de son histoire depuis sa construction de ce qu'il a été, la fierté de ceux qu'il l'on construit, son lancement, ce qu'il représente, un coup très dur de savoir qu'il n'a pas pu etre gardé en France par des gens sans scrupules pour en faire un musée ou autre! Il a été finalement démantelé pour en faire du fer a béton! Bien triste fin pour cette légende que fut Le France,puis rebaptisé Norway et a la fin Blue Lady! Hommage a toi splendide bateau! Tu n'es pas oublié par ceux qui t'ont vu naitre, qui t'ont réalisé jour après jour jusqu'a son lancement et de ceux qui y ont travaillé dessus, merci!
C'est plus fort que moi, rien y fait, a chaque fois que revois cette belle et a la fois triste vidéo de ce somptueux navire qu'était le FRANCE , mon coeur se serre! Merci de lui avoir rendu un dernier hommage, merci pour lui et merci pour nous c'est vraiment triste qu'il ne soit plus ! J'ai eu l'occasion et ce, par deux fois lui rendre visite du moins son étrave au Havre! C'était plus fort que moi, il fallait que j'y aille, le voir, le toucher, le prendre en photo a coté de moi, c'était un moment émouvant , je le regardais longuement intensément avec émotion! Merci pour ce moment encore émouvant!
Merci pour votre commentaire , cela me touche beaucoup , il faut dire qu'ils manques à beaucoup de passionnés , j'ai eu la chance de faire 6 croisières à son bord sous le nom NORWAY .Quand je me suis rendu à ALANG en INDE j'étais triste de le voir comme cela mais fière d'etre à son bord , malheureusement triste fin pour lui .
The magnificent S.S. Norway is for evermore a most beautiful part of this great universe. For everything has to be known and understood fully before it can become incarnate, so it can never be truly lost. 🙏🏼 Hare Aum Tat Sat, Hare Aum, Shanti. 🕊️🌊🔹💙🔹🌊🕊️
Did you know they put the nose of the hull.? Of france. Betting on the docks river of seine next to the eiffel tower. A small piece. Of such a large steamer. Which has disappeared for ever. Really stupid
@@penkagenova7073 You cannot go inside. It was ripped apart with cutting torches many years back. It was sliced into small pieces of scrap and everything was completely smashed up.
@Tommy chevy.s: This is a very understandable feeling. I wish with all my heart that S.S. Norway could have been saved. I wrote to NCL to thank them for all the years of service they provided with S.S. Norway and they never replied. How could anyone not really love her! One hopes with the eye of faith that nothing is ever truly lost as it is always a part of this great universe but it is naturally hard for those of us left behind. Very sad.
If I remember correctly, NCL back in the early 2000s was owned by another company called Star Cruises which tried to cut costs on maintenance as much as possible. NCL as an independent company did treat the ship kind of well, so I wonder how much longer the ship would have lasted if NCL had remained independent.
even though her paint was thinning and she looked neglected,she still looked beautiful. The last of the true golden age of liners. So sad....

I took a tour on her many years ago. From a distance she was impressive, up close she looked like one tired out lady.

michael richardson yes, why didn’t they try to save her or make her into a hotel like the Queen Mary.

I made two crossings on the France in 1962. NYC to Southampton and LeHarve to NYC. Watching this I feel a personal sense of loss.
Very sad to see her in that state...terrible that she's now completely gone

Stayed on her in mid 90s, such an amazing ship as much as I love the modern boats this one was truly beautiful.
One of the last of its kind I sailed on her several times and it had the true feeling of sea travel so sad she is gone

What a sad picture of a great lady. I was on her in 1995, and was booked on her again when the boiler blew.
They sure ruined this ship's appearance when they added those extra upper decks.
I loved this ship I hope one day I can use some money to build a new one 🛳 🚢
even in such a terrible state she manages to look beautiful its a shame that now she's probably just a few bottle caps
Marco Polo & Astor too among others
Ah encore un beau gâchis à la Française !!!
On a réussi a détruire encore une légende.
Félicitations
Like a bad slide show at some distant relatives house in the 70's. I mean really, how difficult is it to get the slides right side up?
Pretty much amateur hour video.
And you replied your own comment 3 yrs after you posted it, then i replied to your reply a year later
the most beautiful passenger ship in the world - blue lady x norway x france
They so ruined her appearance when they added the extra decks!
Why didn't they preserve her?
Couldn't you post photos right side up in your own video?
Went on my honeymoon on this ship in 1994 so sad to see this.....
Built in 1961
Built in the 60s, one of the largest liners , One of my favorites .
Please come to America and start scrapping all of these useless pickup trucks. You can then use the metal to build another Norway.
Belle vidéo .👍
merci beaucoup
Who's singing this song?

The nose of the ship to was bought by the City Council of the city of le havre .
I thought this ship was already scrapped?
I can't Fix you aka Dante Lopez it is scrapped but you can still go inside
