Crafted Model of SS Antilles Cruise Liner, Miniature Wooden Ship, Hand Made Museum Quality Models - About SS Antilles. Built for the French Line, the Antilles was a near-sister to the SS Flandre of 1952. Her construction was completed and her maiden voyage made in 1953. She differed from her sister mainly because she was painted in white. She was placed on West Indies cruise service in the 1960s. Her career was much shorter than that of her sister's. On January 8, 1971, she struck a reef near the island of Mustique in the Grenadines while attempting to navigate Lancecoy Bay, a shallow and reef filled bay on the northern side of Mustique. The wreck site is currently submerged off of Mustique and the mast protrudes from the water during low tide.
