Thanks Derek,
I have to admit I have a few boxes of slides which I could quite easily have thrown away a couple of decades back because I couldn't work out what they were of. I'm glad I've hung onto them because generally if I post one on here I will get to a solution. Its a fantastic resource.
So... never throw anything away. Well, not pictures of ships. Everything else is fair game.
Regards
John J.

Many thanks for the quick response ferryboat. I'm pretty sure you are correct. The only sister vessel is Prins Philippe and upon looking at my original closer I can make out that it must be Prince Laurent.
Regards
John J.
