Superstar Libra & Wind Star.
An image, captured in September 2006 of two quite different Cruise Ships, berthed in the Turkish Port of Istanbul. The larger of the two vessels, namely the 42275 Gross Ton Superstar Libra, was built in 1988 and can accommodate 1480 passengers and 740 crew. She was eventually scrapped in Turkey in May 2022. The four masted sailing Cruise Ship to the left of the image is the 5307 Gross Ton Wind Star that was built in France in 1986 and can accommodate 148 passengers and 101 crew. She is still in service in 2023.
