They are working on to contiune service right now; they are trying to make a deal with International Shipping Partners (owners of Gemini & Ocean Pearl) to keep chartering the ships to them and Restise Management for the Happy Dolphin.

5326jan Posted October 5, 2011 #4 Share Posted October 5, 2011 We just saw the Happy Dolphin in Istanbul on September 11. We'd never heard of Happy Cruises, but the ship looked nice from the outside! I was shocked when I saw the article. Apparently the crew is stuck and has not been paid. ITF is supposed to be helping the crew. Here's the article I read... some of the comments at the end tell more than the article. http://maritimematters.com/2011/09/un-happy-cruises-ceases-operations/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
