I was on the Taras Shevchenko for 4 weeks in 1980 when I was 8 years old, sailing from Southampton to Perth, Australia. It was a wonderful experience. The crew were really friendly and all seemed multitalented, doing not only their normal jobs but appearing in the entertainment shows.
Thanks for the link to the pictures - it looked like it had been done up a lot since we were there. It's sad to hear that the ship is no longer with us.
Me too! I was 6 and travelled with my family from Southampton to Sydney, arriving in Sydney in May 1980. Were we friends?!!!
