The B.26's were the type owned by London & Overseas Freighters such as 'London Baron' which were subtley different to this ship with regards to their crane arrangement etc.

I think I might have been hasty here, She is a later style A and P bulker , not sure she is a B-26. They looked similar.

Thanks Chris for reminding me of the B-26 design. One that I'd long since forgotten.
Cheers

She is a standard B-26 Bulker , nic photo Phil.

She was one of the many shipspotting highlights of the entire cruise John. A real classic as you say and instantly recognisable as an A&P ship.
Cheers

What a classic Phil! Nice to see that there are still some A&P built ships still trading other than butchered veterans off the Chinese coast. I guess she'd have to be called an SD26.4 :-))
