WORLD DISCOVERER (ADVENTURER) is for sail already for a while now since the charter with Mauritius Island Cruises and Vista Travel from Germany did not work out as MIC could not proof the ownership of the vessel and ran into serious problems also with the operation of ISLAND SUN and ISLAND SKY. The company is now bakrupt.

Vista Travel had put lots of efforts into settleing up a fantastic program for the ship.
The vessel can now be purchased from Sembawang for a quite high price. I doubt that anybody would buy her right now.
V-Ships is the current manager. From my point of view, a good charter would be the best way but i doubt that the owners would again go into such a risk after what has happened.

ENCHANTED CAPRI is in the Mexican Gulf right now. She is not that old (only built in 1975) so why should she go for scrapping ? The hardware of the ship is quite ok, she was pretty well maintained and still has lots of potential, like her sisters DELPHIN, VAN GOGH, CT NEPTUNE and ISLAND ADVENTURE proove.
I hope that we will see her in Europe next year !

Steeplechase;

I think you are mistaken her and her sisters with some other class, probably Shota Rustaveli and Ivan Franko? The Belorussiya class, which Enchanted Capri (ex Azerbaydzhan) is a member of, is actually doing pretty good. These Wartsila built vessels are pretty strong and the size and design are quite open to novelties so hopefully they'll be around for some time as long as there is a good management to operate them!
