Nice shot Tony, did you still sail in her when she carried a hovercraft on board for shore side trips I think was around 1966/67.

@hobgoblin Thank you John. I cannot remember the hovercraft, but I might have been on another ship at these date’s?.. The next ship I went on was a Shell Tanker, the Axina. I ended up out in the Far East for 13 months, for about three of these we were running JP4 for the Americans up to Vietnam, very bad time?
