MV Ulster Prince was a passenger ferry operated across the Irish Sea between 1929 and 1940. She became a total loss in Greece while a troop ship during WWII.

History

Ulster Prince was the last of three 3700ton motorships built by Harland and Wolff for the Belfast Steamship Co. between 1929 and 1930.[3] She and her sisters, {{MV|Ulster Monarch|1929|2}} and {{MV|Ulster Queen|1930|2}}, were pioneer diesel-propelled cross-channel passenger ships.[1] The trio provided a reliable and regular overnight service between Liverpool and Belfast,[4] which was marketed as the Ulster Imperial Line.[5] Their original grey hulls were later changed to black.[3]Ulster Prince was used as a troop ship during WWII.[1] In April 1941, during the evacuation of Greece, she ran aground off Nafplio, Greece. The following day, she was bombed and became a total loss.[3]

After the war, she was replaced on the Liverpool - Belfast service by the British and Irish ferry {{MV|Leinster|1937|6}} (renamed Ulster Prince (2)).[6]
