TY Jadran, I remember her years ago int the Port of Adelaide, her and a couple other company ships used to visit there and they looked ultra clean and neat with beautiful paintwork and graceful lines. The whites and blacks contrasted very well, like you said, 'eye catching' to say the least!

Who closely watched at the ships in the years 50s and early 60s remembers very well that this ships' type then, was being highly "eye catching and impressive" while being moored within the port of cargo operations ( this I deeply remember as then a 10 year kid at Port of Rijeka).
Thank you very much Gordy for your very well photo of "this good and top classic merchantman of that period".

Thanks Mr Dot, do you remember her predecessor, the first Anshun, she was sunk in Milne bay by the Japanese in the early days of the 2WW...she was raised and renamed the Culcairn. There has been a lot of publicity about her over the years, especially as it was about as far south the Janpanese ventured in the quest for victory over our part of the world.
