Description

A commercial for the Ulster Monarch steam ship, which ferried passengers across the Irish Sea in the lap of luxury. 

The Ulster Monarch was the first of three 3700ton motorships built by Harland and Wolff for the Belfast Steamship Co. between 1929 and 1930. She and her sisters, Ulster Prince and Ulster Queen, were pioneer diesel-propelled cross-channel passenger ships. She was requisitioned during the war but returned to being a passenger ship later. She was scrapped in 1966. 

Credits
