Hate to ..... edit

contradict you, but Maxim Gor'ky - unlike Pushkin, with whom you may perhaps be confusing him (there was / is also an MS Aleksandr Pushkin) - was not, or at least not primarily, a poet. I will check, but I'm not aware that Gor'ky wrote any poetry. Maelli (talk) 09:37, 21 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Maxim Gorki was not a poet though he - like many people - wrote a few pieces of poetry early on — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.187.149.134 (talk) 12:50, 31 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

HANSEATIC LEAGUE ? edit

Hi, I just discovered, in the history overview her second name is shown as HANSEATIC LEAGUE, which seems to be a mistake, as it was HANSEATIC. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.62.10.234 (talk) 09:11, 1 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Collision with iceberg edit

This ship was badly damaged in a collision with an iceberg in June of 1989, and had to be evacuated. Fortunately there was no loss of life. Text from the article below:

"On a light June night in 1989 the Russian cruise ship Maxim Gorkiy glides peacefully along the coast of Svalbard. Suddenly there is a loud impact and alarm bells ring all over the ship. Just like Titanic, the ship carrying 973 German passengers has hit an iceberg. It takes on water and begins to sink immediately. Fortunately a rescue helicopter is stationed on Bjørnøya, and the Norwegian Coast Guard ship Senja is on patrol not far away. When Senja comes to the rescue three hours later, the cruise ship’s bow is already submerged to the level of the main deck. However, the coast guard crew manages to prevent Maxim Gorkiy from going down. The passengers, many of them dressed in nightclothes, are evacuated from the ice floes around the ship using helicopters, lifeboats and life rafts. They are then transported to Svalbard. Luckily, no lives are lost."
