Portuguese Shipping
 
 
These pages are devoted to the Portuguese mercahnt fleet. Liners were built to serve their colonies,and more recently there have been Portuguese-owned cruise ships. The table below shows complete career histories of individual ships.
 
The definitive book on Portuguese liners is Paquetes Portugueses, by Luis Miguel Correia, published by Edicoes Inapa. This is one of the most outstanding books on liners ever published. The numbers preceding each ship name on the pages below refer to the fleet list tables in this book.
