History
A series of marine passenger and freight ships B-492 and its modification B-493 were manufactured from 1980 to 1986. The shipyard Stocnia Szczecinska im A Warskiego in Szczecin in the Polish People’s Republic built the ships of its own project commissioned by the Soviet Union . The ships were delivered to the Soviet shipping companies: Black Sea Shipping Company - ChMP (four ships, of which one was then transferred to the Baltic Shipping Company - (BMP) to the Leningrad - Riga line ), Estonian Shipping Company - EMP - (one ship to the Tallinn-Helsinki line ), Far Eastern Shipping Company - DVMP (two vessels).
Technical equipment
The vessels have a diesel drive with 4 Sulzer-Skoda main engines with an effective power of 12,800 kW (17,400 hp), driving 2 adjustable-pitch propellers.
On board
The initial passenger capacity of each ship was 496 people with accommodation in cabins of 2 and 4 passengers, and a deck could accept up to 118 cars. In the first five years of operation, all vessels underwent refurbishment in accordance with the requirements for cruise ships. According to the ship Mikhail Suslov , it was decided to convert the latter at the expense of the auto deck into the latest medical complex. The vessel was re-equipped from March 19 to June 2, 1989 at the shipyard Lloyd Werft Bremerhaven GmbH in Bremerhaven (Germany) and cost the Black Sea Shipping Company about 27 million marks. [3]
