Thanks Malcolm, I vaguely now remember another photographer there on some days, strange catching up after 40 years.
Lovely to put some details on some of the old photos.

Hi Dave, as I was once again standing alongside you, the date was in my records. The voyage details are derived from Lloyd's Shipping Indexes or Voyage Records of which I have a reasonable collection. I will see what I can do to add details to some of your other posted photographs.

best regards. Malcolm

Thanks Malcolm, do you have access to records or is it from your own notes, unfortunately in those days I only took the photos, now I want to know everything if I can source it.
Regards Dave

The date was 14th July 1974 - inbound from Calcutta via Mombasa

She was initially built to carry automobiles, namely Volkswagens, to North America. I have seen several photos online of her at different ports unloading Beatles.

Very interesting ship for her built year... Normally I would expect her with a dozen of masts/derricks, perhaps even maybe mixed with deck cranes.
