Very nice to see this picture, from the times when ships were ships. Bridge almost in the centre of the ships length. She seems to have 26 life boats onboard. Even if they were not so big as the life boats of the cruise-ships today, it makes a good capacity, depending on the passengers and crew onboard.

Another cracking shot Gordy, we don't see too many of ships in full trooper colours.
