The Fair Lady motor ship is a German passenger ship owned by the shipping company Cassen Eils of Cuxhaven. She was built in 1970 at the Mützelfeldt shipyard in Cuxhaven. The keel was laid on May 6, 1969 and the launching took place on March 6, 1970. The work was completed in May 1970. It was initially used for the connection with the island of Heligoland, and later for routes between Kiel and Marstal, on the Danish island of Ærø, and between Eckernförde and Sønderborg. In April 2000 she was chartered by Halligreederei Sven Paulsen, who used her until 30 April 2004 as Adler Baltica between Zinnowitz and the Polish city of Świnoujście. Between July 2005 and December 2010, the ship sailed under the name Lady Assa under the Polish flag on a charter for Żegluga Gdańska between Kołobrzeg, Darłowo, Ustka in Poland and Nexø on the Danish island of Bornholm. In January 2011, she was bought back by shipping company Cassen Eils, who used her for traffic between Bremerhaven and Heligoland. In October 2020, the ship was temporarily used by AG Ems between Emden and Borkum Island, and she was later decommissioned in preparation for conversion to LPG propulsion.
