Dear old friend - "Brandanger"
My first job as radio operator was on "Brandanger" from 1960 to 1963. Even if the ship was old and the radio equipment not the best, I liked to stay on Board. I get a little sad when I see the condition now - it needs to be cleaned and painted. Even more sad when I saw that the ship was ready for demolition. Good bye old ship!

Really lovely old freighter.
I am surprised, that ther are still lying a few of this beautiful type with bridge midssips lying around somewhere.
