TS Raffaello and Michelangelo were sister ships belonging to the Italian company Ansaldo Shipyards, TS Michelangelo was launched on 16 September 1962 and his "brother" launched on March 24, 1963.
They were 275 meters long 30 meters wide and weighed 55,000 tons and were very fast because its speed was 26 knots on average.
His career was not very progressive for both ships too short lived about 10 years, for example TS Michelangelo was sold to Iran for use of parts.
I truly magnificent ships because these vessels a few years ago preceded the modern ships of today, the so-called cruises hotel because its hull was not as black and became white.
In terms of design I confess, I do not appreciate that ships with two chimneys, but these ships are however dynamic aspect. It was the end of the transatlantic Italians. Since the late 50's that the trip by plane were much faster and cheaper.
