Great shots of a very fine vessel, Peter, like especially the top one with her running close in to make room for the incoming tanker.

Good to see you posting again.

Hi Peter
Always was a good looking ship, I wish I had a £ for every time I was with my Dad when he towed her off the Tyne commissioners quay on a Saturday afternoon.

She never was one to hang about.

Saw her laid-up and looking very sad, but cannot remember where.

Gut feeling says it was Naples but not sure.

Nice pictures of a very smart ship.
