List of all Ships build at H&W?

[Thorsten Totzke]

Hi!

I look since some month for a list with all Ships Harland & Wolff has build.

I need: Yardnumber, Name and the owner.

I have such a list made for all Ships build at Blohm & Voss here in Hamburg, but i want also make an for all Ships build at H & W.

Can anyone help?

Hello, Thorsten---

The most complete list I'm aware of is the one which appears in Shipbuilders to the World, a company history that was published in 1986. It gives all the information you're looking for, and then some, for each H&W-built ship to that time.

[Thorsten Totzke]

Thank you Mark!

Seems that this is a "must have"

my only problem is the price for this book. I have take a look and found some from 120 Euros (round 150 Dollar) to open End.

[MAB]

Yep...it's not easy to find and, when it does show up, it's not cheap. I obtained my copy a few years back, so I don't have any recent pricing knowledge, but the 120 Euro/$150 range doesn't sound to me like it's too far off the mark.

Hey Thorsten!

Are there any famous ships built at B&V?

(probably a very stupid question, but I'm not that in-to shipyards )

Blohm & Voss has build (under many other)

the

Vaterland (the lather Leviathan)
Bismarck (the later Majestic)
Cap Polonio
Cap Arcona
Wilhelm Gustloff

the Battleship Bismarck

the Monte-class Ships of the Hamburg-Süd
the Ballin-class Ships

and the famous Europa of the Northgerman Lloyd


think that is famous enough??

to make it a little bit better:

on 08.11.2005 comes the QM2 for his first check in drydock.....to Blohm & Voss! I hope that i become the chance to make some good Photos of this...

[Christian]

That's a great collection of ships!

Is QM 2 coming to Europe? Maybe she also docks in Rotterdam. I hope you can make some pictures of her!!

Love your name, Samson&Goliath (three guesses as to what it refers to, and the first two don't count, eh? )

[Christian]

I have no idea, exept that Samson is a talking dog from a belgian childrens TV show, and Goliath the highest rollercoaster in NL. Don't see a connection though

One in particular is the SS Rohilla built in 1906, but sadly lost two years after Titanic. She also shared one of the Titanic's stewardesses Mrs Mary Keziah Roberts.
