SS Michelangelo! Hoping to get to finishing up my SS Rafaello soon... First time in a long time I designed a guy that does not look like he'd make you wanna file a restraining order

I really don't know what's up with me being drawn to italian ships there was always something wrong with them

The New York Times edition of October 25th 1965 showing the funnel of either the Michelangelo or her nearly identical twin, the Raffaello, both finished that same year. The ships were considered very modern at the time, something the photographer surely wanted to show not only by focussing the viewers attention on the curiously shaped funnel, but also on the woman wearing a bikini. Taking a more southern route than her british, french o german counterparts, the italian twins navigated through warmer weather, which is why they had three pools and a large range of deck facilities.

This top view of the SS Michelangelo shows the big deck space she offered. Travelling through the Mediterranean and a more southern route in the Atlantic Ocean, her design was adapted to a warmer climate. In this picture it is possible to see the three pools for the three classes on board (from above to below 1st, 2nd and 3rd class).
