The Glengarry, a 1940s merchant ship.

The Glengarry was a Glenearn class cargo ship built for the Glen Line in . It was seized by the Germans during World War 2 and was transformed into an auxiliary cruiser named Hansa. The British recaptured her near the end of the war and returned Glengarry to her owners.

If you’ve seen the 2011 movie “The Adventures of Tintin,” the ship Karaboudjan is based on this very vessel.
