GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Lead says upto 300 passengers could be carried. The main text raises this number to 321. Please remove the discrepancy.
I change the lead to say that the ship could carry about 320 passengers. — Bellhalla (talk) 23:25, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have put the exact figure in the lead. I find it better. - DSachan (talk) 10:04, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
