The SS Normadic was last used as a floating restaurant on the River Seine in Paris. The ship’s owner went bankrupt and Nomadic faced the scrapyard. And a campaign was started in Belfast to bring her back to where she was built. It cost £171,320 of public money to buy the ship at auction and was restored by, among, others, the Belfast firm that built her – Harland and Wolff. The company is still based at the Titanic Quarter ! It was an a lovely quaint ship, smaller inside than I thought it would be and if you are in the area, it’s a nice thing to visit.
