Wonderful that this over-a-century old German-built ship, sunk by the Brits in Lake Tanganyika in 1915, was refloated, and still plies the long lenghs of the lake. Of a vintage was the little "Africa Queen" on Lake Victoria. I've just seen her successor, at Mwanza. See the short video on my youtube site, on Speak Swahili, Dammit!
