MS Norwind

P&O’s interest was through its subsidiary General Steam Navigation Company, which had a 35 per cent stake in North Sea Ferries.

Nine years later, demand was growing for North Sea ferries and two new ships, more than twice as large as before, Norland and Norstar were introduced on the Hull- Rotterdam route, therefore replacing Norwind and Norwave.

[1] In 1987 after 22 years of service the new ferries Norsun and Norsea were introduced on the Hull-Rotterdam route.

Norwind and Norwave left UK waters for the Mediterranean that year.

Heavily rebuilt, Norwind was sold to Ventouris and renamed Grecia Express.
