M/V Rochdale One was a cruise ship built by the French shipyard Ateliers et Chantiers Dubigeon-Normandie at Nantes in 1977 for the Soviet Union.

As the Ayvasovskiy (Russian: Айвазовский) she was operated by the Danube Shipping Company [ru], mainly in the Black Sea and the Mediterranean.

[2] Eventually the ship was acquired by three Dutch housing associations; Algemene Woningbouw Vereniging (AWV), DUWO, and Woningstichting Rochdale, who agreed to cooperate in order to alleviate the extreme shortage of student accommodation in Amsterdam.

[3] The ship was towed to Greece to be converted into an accommodation vessel before sailing to Amsterdam, arriving there on 8 July 2004.

[6] In July 2013, after a failed attempt to sell the ship to Russian buyers,[7] she sailed to Aliağa, Turkey, to be scrapped.
