An interesting visitor to Dublin the MV Logos Hope currently at berth 18 Cruise Terminal, it's currently operated by some religious crowd and holds the crown as the worlds biggest "floating book fair" (not sure there is much competition in the category).
Built in 1973 as the Gusta Vasa but might be known to some here as the former Norrona which caught fire while on charter to B&I in 1990 one crew member lost their life. She also operated for Stena Sealink in the 1990's
She has been heavily modified since her new owners purchased her in 2004.
