Description:

This relatively new bulker is proceeding up the Port Adelaide River to her berth. By the look of her hull it would appear that a dry-docking is imminent!
Check out my pic of the "Kowloon Venture" taken on 6 March 1969 at Thevenard - the funnel colours match.

Chris,
The funnel mark of the mighty Wah Kwong Shipping.
The ‘V’ stemming from their vessels suffix ‘Venture’.
She bunkered in Melbourne enroute from Argentina with soya bean mill after making stops at Tauranga and Newcastle along the way.
