ave Eridano (former Tiber; former British mercantile Edinburgh), expelled in the 1907 and kept in service until the end of the war as a storage vessel, transferred to Bari and given to the National Patronage Opera, is finally sold to the Municipality of Bari which will establish on-board elementary school and maritime specialization courses in favor of children of fishermen and foundlings.
