 Re: PACSUN
Dear readers,
My name is F. Fonteyne.
In case one is interested, I sailed on the "Stad Antwerpen" from
August 19th 1961 to June 5th 1962.
Two round the world voyages with a cargo of cokes from Bremen to Kawasaki, then to Vancouver where we loaded a cargo of wheat for Londen.
The port of Kawasaki did not yet really exist, it was just being build; the cockes
were discharged at the anchorage, in barges.
I now wonder if ever somebody will read this!
