Contributed by a reader. CARINTHIA narrowly avoided disaster on the 30th August 1961. She was bound for Montreal from Liverpool and Greenock when, in thick fog 30 miles west of Quebec, she collided with the 7,013 ton Canadian ship TADOUSSAC. Both vessels were damaged, the TADOUSSAC having windows and lifeboats smashed, but luckily there were no casualties on either ship. CARINTHIA had 873 passengers on board at the time. It was reported that only frantic last minute manoeuvres by the pilots of each ship had avoided a head on collision. Despite the incident, CARINTHIA arrived in Montreal only 30 minutes late and departed for Britain on time. |
