About Royal Daffodil II

MV Royal Daffodil II was a Mersey ferry, built in 1958 to provide passenger ferry service across the River Mersey in England. In 1972, she was sold to new owners and operated in the Eastern Mediterranean as the Ioulis Keas II, Agia Kyriaki and Dolphin I, before being lost at sea in 2007. Royal Daffodil II was constructed by James Lamont & Co at Greenock and entered service in 1958. She was larger than the earlier Leasowe and Egremont, as she had three decks and was designed for the dual role of ferry and cruise service. She was named after the SS Royal Daffodil, a previous Mersey ferry that had gained the "Royal" prefix for her service in the First World War. The Roman "II" was added to her name because of a Thames estuary cruise ship also called Royal Daffodil, which existed from 1939 until 1967. The gross register tonnage of Royal Daffodil II was 609.
