Wow! Can't believe I stumbled upon this thread. I cruised to Nassau on the Bahama Star in the spring of 1973. It was our high school Senior Trip. Cleveland High School - Saint Louis, MO (USA). Turned out that there were several other Senior Trips booked on this same cruise. Oh, the mayhem!The liquor flowed freely and 'romance' was everywhere...
As our 40th reunion approches, I was digging around for artifacts and found that I still have my cabin key with fob.
As a P.S. to the above post, that same site mentions (in 1974) "...that the ship had been suffering various mechanical problems in the past twelve months...."
On our return to Miami, there was a problem with the ballast pumps and we made the trip with a substantial list to Port.
I have not been on a cruise since and probably will not ever again. After that experience, anything else is sure to disappoint.
