Astonishing, 42 years old and still trading.

As an example Port Line in existance for approx 70 years, the longest life of any of their ships was the Port Fairy at 36 years, and if she had travelled the distance of Leverkusen in her life would probably be still in service trying to catch up ! due to the much longer periods spent in port up to the containerisation of liner trades.

Denis - thanks

The last of the old style merchantmen looked quite overwhelmed with these new generation boxes! mrdot.
