Gordy, Great shot - Oriana looks majestic.

Not quite, Dave, they were developed at the same time by two seperate companies, P&O and Orient Line, and were completed within year of each other. CANBERRA must have been quite far along by the time ORIANA entered service.

You can see where the design features came from for the 'Great White Wale' , SS Canbarra , came from.

Nice shot Gordy, I sailed on the Oriana as A/B in 1967, it's nice to see a picture of her that doesn't look lik it came off the top of a chocolate box.

What a wonderful maritime scene to wake up to! I managed to shoot her many times at Vancouver, both in her original corn livery, and in P&O white! mrdot.
