Mariam
Express was laid down as a Ro-Ro ferry at La Palice in
France, and was launched in 1978. Her history is rather
uneventful until she ended up as a ferry in the route
between The Arab States and Iraq in the early 2000s. Under
a journey from Dubai 3. May 2006 she was as usual
overloaded with both vehicles and cargo before she left,
and once underway she sailed into harsh weather conditions
and rough seas. Not surprisingly, she soon sank. The wreck
rest today on her port side on a depth of 15 to 20 meter
approx twelve nautical miles outside Port Rashid in Dubai.
