Description
1973 CARRINGTON - SOUTHERN STAR. Imagine owning a piece of maritime history with a unique story to tell. The Southern Star, a 35-meter vessel built in 1973, has journeyed across the globe, from the vibrant coral reefs of the Great Barrier Reef to the rugged shores of the Falkland Islands. Now, this remarkable ship is ready to embark on a new chapter, offering an extraordinary business opportunity for those seeking a truly unique venture. Originally built in Newcastle, Australia, the Southern Star has served a variety of roles throughout her lifetime. From a supply vessel supporting vibrant marine life to a survey vessel charting unexplored waters, and even playing a part in anti-piracy operations, this ship has witnessed a lifetime of adventure. In 2020 - 2024, she was lovingly restored and trans-formed into a thriving café, restaurant, education centre, and visitor centre in Scarborough Harbour.
