Hi Patrick

Great photograph and thnaks for posting it.

I was a Cadet Engineer on this Deep Sea Freezer Trawler when it was MV Princess Anne H269.owned by Boston Deep Sea Trawlers back in the 1970's.

My understanding is that the vessel now fishes/operates out of South Africa - now renamed as South Princess - see photograph @
