The one on the vänster (on the left) is the Tor Hollandia, but maybe that is a different ship than subject of this article.
 
Another photo which could be used
 
As the Ariadne, it does look different.

I added the "Black Diamond" photo which is still in the article, and the photo here which was removed by User:Davidships with edit summary saying it was "irrelevant" or something. It's my understanding that it is a photo of the ship. The Tor Hollandia is on the left. Or are you suggesting that is a different one? It is labelled that way in Commons, and seems to me to be the best available photo (although needing to be cropped) available at Commons. Davidships, could you please comment? --Doncram (talk) 01:55, 24 November 2019 (UTC) Hmm, i could be wrong. Is the Tor Hollandia one on the left a freighter (frachter), not the ferry ship subject of this article? Actually it was i who found it by searching and added the specific category there. --Doncram (talk) 01:59, 24 November 2019 (UTC) Hmm, i think i was wrong. I will add photo of the Ariadne to the article, instead. --Doncram (talk) 02:05, 24 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

You got it - the ship in the first photo is a 424grt coaster, not 7748grt cruise-ferry, and she is the German flag TOR WALLONIA, not a Swedish-flag TOR HOLLANDIA. I put a note on the KOPALNIA KLEOFAS (poln.) und Frachter TOR WALLONIA (Kiel 53.743).jpg talk page on Commons. Well they got "freighter" right.
In my view the photos of skating enthusiasts on the ship are quite unsuitable. But the Ariadne is just fine (and probably a decent Tor Hollandia will turn up as well). Davidships (talk) 02:41, 24 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
