Hi Paula - I haven't been here for a while.
I don't have any photos of the Hexham Bank - sorry.
I have photos of him and crew on Tatana from about 1962.

My father, John Michelsen, sailed on Hexham Bank between 1964 and 1972 - anyone here remember him? He would have been 85 years old this year, so I know it's not likely that his ship mates will still be around ... worth a try though!

Hi Peter, yes I saw her a few times when i was in Newcastle at the steelworks, she would be going up the channel to Hexham on the other side. She was a nice little vessel.

Hello Gordy. I remember seeing Hexham Bank on fire off Shellharbour on the New South Wales South Coast. She was on the "60 miler" run from Sydney to Bass Point Quarry.
