Maria Yermolova-class passenger ship

History

The passenger ships of this project were made from 1974 to 1978, under a colossal provincial shipyard contract USSR signed by order of Leonid Brezhnev at the personal request of Marshal Tito for the salvation of the Yugoslav shipyard.[1] Eight ice-class vessels of project 1454 were built, the only of their kind in the world. Three vessels were delivered to Murmansk Shipping Company (MMP), four to Far East Shipping Company (FESCO), and one vessel to the Sakhalin Shipping Company - NSR Kholmsk. The vessels were built in two series. The first series consisted of: Maria Yermolova, Maria Savina, Alla Tarasova and MV Lyubov Orlova. The second series was: Olga Androvskaya, Olga Sadovskaya, Claudia Elanskaya and the Antonina Nezhdanoff. The vessels were used as cruise ships for Soviet and foreign tourists.

FESCO eventually acquired five of the ships:[2] Olga Androvskaya, Olga Sadovskaya, Lyubov Orlova, Maria Savina and Antonina Nezhdanoff. Technical capabilities allow riverboat Antonina Nezhdanoff is composed of ships of the Baltic Shipping Company, from Murmansk to go to a new home port - Vladivostok, breaking the track Northern Sea Route for 12 days.
