This vessel was scrapped by Luguria Maritime at Milton Creek, Sittingbourne in 1986. Her sister COMMUNICATOR (ex-GARDLINE SEEKER) was a pirate radio ship used by RADIO LASER 730 at some point but she was scrapped at Orkney in 2007 - see IMO 5351923 on this site. Both were built as cargo ships.

I think this became a north sea pirate radio ship which eventually sank during heavy weather.
i sailed as 2nd mate when it was a survey vessel
