The Virgo is a nice ship. Not the biggest in it's class but I still remember walking up to her from the pier and being overwhelmed by the sheer size. She's a very steady vessel too, I felt like I was on solid earth during the entire journey.

Papenburg, which is in northwest Germany. The footage is from the webcam on top of the shipyard and from the shore of the river Ems.

Superstar Leo and Superstar Virgo are twins right ?

Yes, the SuperStar Leo and SuperStar Virgo were twin "Leo Class" ships completed in 1998 and 1999 respectively. No other "Leo Class" ships were built. Leo now operates as the Norwegian Spirit, while Virgo continues to operate under Star Cruises (My last comment about Leo still being a Star Cruises vessel was a misprint, I meant to say Virgo).
