An Entity of Type: ship, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

MS GNV Aries was built as MS Norsea for North Sea Ferries as part of their response to the need for larger vessels in the mid to late 1980s. The 1974 ships MV Norland and MV Norstar were proving to be very popular, and were running at capacity. Therefore, North Sea Ferries designed their "3rd Generation" overnight ferry. The two parent companies within North Sea Ferries placed their orders in two separate locations. P&O placed its at Govan Shipbuilders on the River Clyde, and Nedlloyd placed their order with NKK in Yokohama, Japan.

  • MS GNV Aries was built as MS Norsea for North Sea Ferries as part of their response to the need for larger vessels in the mid to late 1980s. The 1974 ships MV Norland and MV Norstar were proving to be very popular, and were running at capacity. Therefore, North Sea Ferries designed their "3rd Generation" overnight ferry. The two parent companies within North Sea Ferries placed their orders in two separate locations. P&O placed its at Govan Shipbuilders on the River Clyde, and Nedlloyd placed their order with NKK in Yokohama, Japan. Norsea entered service on the Hull-Rotterdam route. She was the largest passenger ship to be built on the Clyde since Queen Elizabeth 2. It was also the last large passenger ship to be built in the United Kingdom. In May 2001, now owned and operated by P&O Ferries ordered MS Pride of Hull and MS Pride of Rotterdam. Once relieved of service on the Hull-Rotterdam route, the ship was sent off for two months major refurbishment and branding realignment, prior to entering service on the Hull-Zeebrugge route, and replacing the 27-year-old MS Norland in the new P&O colours. The ship's name was also changed from Norsea to Pride of York, to bring the names in line with the rest of the P&O Ferries fleet. In October 2020, P&O announced that the sister ships, and Pride of York and Pride of Bruges to be withdrawn due to the decline in traffic caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The final service from Hull left on 9 December 2020. In 2021, both were sold to Grandi Navi Veloci with Pride of York being renamed GNV Aries. (en)
