She have no IMO nr.but an ID nr.1168519
If she should have gotten an IMO nr. it would be: 5291381.

You are right, the correct number is/was 529138. My mistake. In your reaction you wrote the number 1168519, but I think the correct number is/was 168519. Is that correct?

The painting looks like a cormorant, or a creature from the depth. Maybe the Monster of the Black Sea? ;-)

It has been transposed as an ID from miramarshipsindex, which allocates 529138 to this ship in 1961 when she became the REDBROOK of D.L. Street Ltd., Newport, U.K. This may be a Lloyd's number, I don't know.
To complicate matters, the same ship as I remember seeing her in Dunedin a long time ago, SAXON STAR is listed as 1168519. This needs to be sorted out, I think.

The sea must be quite calm there when she's sitting there for almost 50 years. Think of how the Atlantic Ocean battered and finally devoured the wreck of American Star.
I like the painting on the hull here - what is it, a bird?
Cheers
