Hi Clyde, I am glad that you enjoy the pictures, and yes, there has clearly been a dutiful crew aboard.

Thank you once again Bendt for a series showing landlubbers like me areas of ships that we rarely see. It is also great to see the pride in appearance displayed by the crew, even on the way to her destruction.

Hi Frank, yes it was a super fine ship, the interior was very well kept, the wheelhouse was almost like new and the engine compartment was polished, and yes it is sad that such a ship can no longer work.

Thank you for your comments.

Best Regards
Bendt

Very clean and well maintained.
Interesting, the main electric board sharing the same engine room place.

Sad thing is such well build and maintained old ships are all soon or late facing up torches or shredders then the steel will go to a furnace deleting them forever. LUCKILY someone did a photographic series to remember. Thanks for that.
