Ferry that took passengers to Titanic up for auction

A ferry that transported passengers and luggage onto the ill-fated Titanic, was sold for scrap metal and used as a restaurant may get one more life tomorrow when it goes on the auction block.

The Nomadic, a 221ft ferry currently docked in the northwest port of Le Havre, will be put up for auction in Paris with a starting price of £172,000 (€250,000), the French Titanic Society said today. The vessel failed to sell on November 10 for £344,000 (€500,000).
