Don Pierson also created Swinging Radio England and Britain Radio on board another ship in 1966.
This vessel anchored close to his other ship venture, but the twin stations were not commercially successful, owing to the use of very loud and whacky American "boss jocks" which left the British listeners bemused.
When his second ship venture also closed and the ship returned to Miami, Florida, in 1967, Don Pierson attempted to restart Wonderful Radio London from this same ship, which he proposed anchoring off New York.
