Hi,

The Liberty Ship Odessa was seen laid up in Vladivostok as late as 2012, according to my information. I'm told it has since been scrapped. Does anyone have specific information on when it was scrapped? Thanks.

According to this Russian website (https://fleetphoto.ru/vessel/70785/) she was sent to be broken up at the end of 2003 — which is at odds with your eyewitness report of 2012.

Thanks. I'll have to go back and check my notes on the dates. I might have been mistaken.

I checked. My original post was in error. The communication I had with the individual in Vladivostok was in 2002, not 2012. Therefore, it is consistent with the ship being broken up in 2003.
