BRAVO KLAPA!
Bartule ja iman jos jednu sliku od Lapada ali ne mogu stavit na shipspotting (copyright). Bila je citava stranica ne TEES SHIPS (ne mogu nac, je ponovo).Clanak zapocinje ovako:
When I saw the Yugoslav LAPAD at Liverpool on 10 July 1967 I thought little more than "what a lovely ship". It was not until I looked her up that I found she had close local connections for me having previously been owned within the Constantine Group based in Middlesbrough.

Her full history as recorded in the WSS publication THE CONSTANTINE GROUP by my friend Harry Appleyard is:
1689gt. 11.1949 completed by Burntisland Shipbuilding Co. Ltd., Burntisland for Wood Lines Ltd.; 1962 transferred to Contatntine Lines (Operations) Ltd.; 1963 sold to Atlantska Plovidba, Yugoslavia, and renamed LAPAD; 1970 sold to Mediteranska Plovidba, Yugoslavia; 1971 sold to Brodospas who commenced demolition 27.4.1971 at Split.

Ako kome treba slika (rezolucija 34kb ali ipak lijepa) javite mi se na [email protected]
pa cu Vam poslat

Pozdrav svima
Adio
