Description:

Houssam B with a deck cargo of barges. She was built by Gotaverken in 1959 as the ore-oil carrier Malgomaj for Swedish owner Grangesberg-Oxelosund Trafik A/B. Sold in 1965 she was renamed Commander Charles H. Smith then Commodore Charles H. Smith, Charles having been promoted, presumably. 1973 Helios, 1976 Houssam B and broken up at Gadani Beach in 1981. According to Miramar she was converted into a tanker in 1970 so would fit a variety of catagories. This situation is not as dangerous as it looks - we were lying stopped at the time.
