Post subject:  [Marine Preservation] ORIANA lists at dock

It has been reported today, and the pictures at the link below show, that the 1960 ocean liner ORIANA has started listing at dock in Dalian, China; following high winds. Three decks are said to be flooded; it is not know if this will be the end of her or not.

She was serving as a floating hotel and resort at the time of the incident, and was not a working steamship.

The bad news on the world's remaining steamships refuses to let up.
