  • Le SS Aleksandr Pushkin (Александр Пушкин) est un paquebot russe, assurant tout d'abord un service transatlantique (il est l'un des trois derniers navires à assurer ce service), puis navire de croisière. Il a quatre sister-ships : l’Ivan Franko (1964 - 1997), le Shota Rustaveli (1966 - 2003), le Taras Shevchenko (1967 - 2005) et le Mikhail Lermontov (1972 - 1986). Tous portent le nom de poètes et écrivains slaves. Lors de l'éclatement de l'URSS, l’Aleksandr Pushkin est cédé à la compagnie Orient Lines, sous le nom de MS Marco Polo, sous lequel il navigue toujours. (fr)
  • Marco Polo è stata una nave da crociera originariamente costruita come transatlantico e realizzata nell’allora Germania Est, presso il cantiere Mathias-Thesen-Werft di Wismar per la sovietica Compagnia di navigazione marittima del Baltico (Балтийское морское пароходство – БМП), per la quale è entrata in servizio nel 1965 venendo battezzata Aleksandr Pushkin. Dopo importanti modifiche e aggiunte, la nave ha navigato come Marco Polo per la Orient Lines dal 1993 al 2008. Recentemente ha navigato per Cruise & Maritime Voyages, con sede nel Regno Unito e la sua controllata tedesca Transocean Tours. Dopo che nel 2020 Cruise & Maritime Voyages è entrata in amministrazione controllata a causa della pandemia del COVID-19, è stata venduta all'asta da CW Kellock & Co.Ltd per 2.770.000 USD il 22 ottobre 2020.

  • M/S Marco Polo är ett kryssningsfartyg som ursprungligen sjösattes 1964 under namnet Aleksandr Pusjkin. Fartyget byggdes i Wismar i dåvarande Östtyskland för Sovjetunionen och hade där sin hemmahamn i Leningrad. Till samma serie räknades ytterliga fyra fartyg som var uppkallade efter ryska och ukrainska författare. Skeppet är 176,28 meter lång och 23,55 meter brett. Det har åtta däck och ett djupgående på 8,20 meter. Efter Sovjetunionens sammanbrott såldes fartyget. Mellan 1991 och 1992 skedde en större renovering och ombyggnad i Grekland. Sedan dess bär fartyget namnet Marco Polo. Ägare var sedan olika rederier med säte i Bahamas. Den 15 februari 2014 skedde en olycka på fartyget där en äldre man miste livet. Orsaken var en stor våg i samband med en orkan i Engelska kanalen. (sv)
