Fred Olsen Cruise Lines has failed in its quest to prevent the beaching of a former cruise ship it sold for eventual recycling in Turkey but turned up off the Indian ship recycling beach at Alang.
The 28,600-gt Odin (ex-Black Watch, built 1972) was beached at the plot of Alang-based GGSBY Industries on Saturday after a High Court of Gujarat judge lifted the arrest warrant the UK-based, Norwegian-controlled cruise operator obtained on 6 June to prevent its demolition from taking place in India.
