Saved from the newspaper mulchers at Alang from a very hot, humid, mosquito-infested trader's yard, these plans are the original plans for Costa's brilliant SS EUGENIO C. These particular plans are architectural, from the Cantieri Riuniti dell'Adriatico shipyard and most are dated from late 1964 through 1965. One of a kind, in Italian, of course.

Of course, the ship's hull number was 1884. These plans are enduring but a few have been tested by time, some wear and the elements. Most are in very good to excellent condition but some weathering and water spotting may have occurred.

I will try my best to note the condition of each plan in the listings. Please understand these were in use for four decades. They were also difficult and expensive to obtain (the hazards of being a westerner at Alang).

There are many more to come, so if you are looking for something specific, please check back regularly. It will take a long time to get all the various types of plans listed.
