Could be a Cyrillic D, which would make the P an R

Don't know a Redo word though which says more of my Russian vocab rather than whether the word exists

Interestingly, there is a REDO, a chemical carrier, but it looks to be a different ship.  :-\

That ship looks more like a Trawler.

There is a flag, but with no wind blowing  it is hanging limp.      ;D

MY OH, who knows a bit about Cyrillic languages, says it's REDO and might be Bulgarian.  The name REDO can be found in Bulgaria.
