I have only seen and photographed the Cruise Ship Viking Venus on the one occasion which was the 3rd of July 2021. 2021 was the year she was released by her Italian Builders to commence her cruising career. When I saw her I was on board the SS Shieldhall in the Eastern Solent photographing the yachts in that years Round the Island Race. I believe that Viking Venus had just departed Portsmouth and was heading in the direction of the English Channel. Viking Venus has a Gross Tonnage of 47842 Tons, is Registered in Norway, can accommodate 930 passengers and is owned and operated by the shipping company Viking Ocean Cruises Ship VII.
