Description:

Hi. I know the quality its bad, but I just only need the name of this BP tanker. The shot its from the first week of Dec. 1979.
We were heading to Grangemouth (in the Firth of Forth ) and the BP tanker was berthed at a facility East of Forth bridge ( really close ). Hound Point, Sound Point, or something like that...I will use Hound Point for the uploading location box. If Im wrong, please do the corrections
Sorry for the bad quality. No problem if you delete it...Scanned from an old 35mms.
Thanks in advance for any input or information about the tanker.
