Amsterdam - Fiorita
 
 
The Fiorita was previously the 1950-built British Railways Harwich-Hook of Holland night boat Amsterdam, and she entered service with Chandris in 1970. She ran mainly on cruises in the Eastern Mediterranean from Venice. She was laid up in 1977, returning to service for occasional charters and hotel ship duties until 1987, when she capsized in the Turkish port of Fethaye.
