COMMENT THIS PHOTO(2)
Was on the opposite side of the Shell wharf in Geelong to one in the 80's. Everyone vanished, except two crew in white 'top to toe' who connected a white 4 inch line and they also vanished. repeated the process a few hours later before she sailed.
I think they used to scuttle rather scrap these ships.
Side note - standing on the poop watching an R-P come alongside - engineer standing next to me looks at flag - looks at funnel---'hmm - rape and pillage'..
