About Moby Dada
Moby Dada was a cruiseferry operated by Moby Lines. She was built in 1981 as Finlandia for Effoa at Wärtsilä's Perno shipyard in Turku, Finland, and placed in service on Silja Line's Helsinki—Stockholm service. In 1990 she was sold to DFDS Seaways and renamed Queen of Scandinavia. From 2010 until 2016, she operated under the name of Princess Maria for St. Peter Line between Helsinki and St. Petersburg, Russia. In 2016, following the purchase of St. Peter Line by Moby Lines, Princess Maria was renamed Moby Dada and was transferred to the Italian registry in November 2016, before being transferred to Moby Lines' operations on the Mediterranean Sea. On 13 March 2025, the sale for demolition to the Aliaga shipyards was announced.
