Modernistic stern trawler for her time! Seems to be at her builder's yard, but during a return visit while the MILWOOD (A472) was still fitting out (completed 9-1960).
UNIVERSAL STAR, 242gt, completed Mitchison, Gateshead, 1-1960.
1969 TERN SHORE, 1971 TESCALDO VIR, 1972 MONTE FORTE
(still in Equasis under this name, 52 years old, reclassified as a tug in 1966).

And, while I'm at it a retouched print of the JANWOOD, Aberdeen, British, 250gt,
completed Mitchison, Gateshead, 7-1960. Subsequent history not traced.

Again, bow of MILWOOD on left.
