Konstantin Chernenko - Russ

 

Page under construction!

 

This page is devoted to postcards and photographs of the Soviet passenger ship Konstantin Chernenko.

 

Konstantin Chernenko was built in 1986, one of a series of seven similar ships in the Dmitriy Shostakovich Class used by the Soviet shipping companies as ferries and passenger/cruise ships. Konstantin Chernenko was delivered to the Far Easterb Shipping Company (FESCO) for services from Vladivostok to Japan and South Korea. She was renamed Russ in 1988. In the 1990s she operated on charter with the Pacific Cruise Company, along with Mikhail Sholokov. In 1997, Russ began service from Stockholm to Riga for LS Redereja. She was laid up in Stockholm in 1999. In 2000 Russ operated between Odessa and Haifa, and in 2001 between Russia and Japan.
