Shipwrecks & Lost Worlds - MS Dunnottar Castle: six decades across the seas
Shipwrecks & Lost Worlds · 0:37
Built in Belfast in 1936 by Harland and Wolff, the passenger liner MS Dunnottar Castle enjoyed a versatile career spanning more than sixty years. After operating between Britain and South Africa, she was requisitioned by the British Admiralty in 1939 to serve as an armed merchant cruiser and troopship during World War II. Returning to passenger routes after the war, she was later remodelled into a cruise liner, sailing under multiple names until finally being scrapped in India in 2004.
